Invoke iOS app unit test from shell script?

Question

If a DevOps engineer wants to invoke your iOS app unit tests from a shell script(App is in production), how can we do that? Objective is, a devops script should be able to trigger your unit tests and know if your tests pass or fail.

Example:

xcodebuild \
  -workspace MyAwesomeApp.xcworkspace \
  -scheme MyAwesomeApp \
  -sdk iphonesimulator \
  -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 6,OS=8.1' \
  test

Further info here.

The result of something like:

xcodebuild -workspace WORKSPACE -scheme SCHEME -sdk iphonesimulator -destination DESTINATION test

Should equal 0 if everything went well.

Thanks Durdu, just one question your source code is not in local system then what would be the approach?

Not sure what exactly you need but seems like you should look into remote access CI, CD - teamviewer/ Fastlane / Jenkins/ piplines /gitlab
