Hi,
I am currently trying to run a C# NUnit test script from Visual Studio Community 2017 for MAC in integration with Appium. Software configurations are MAC OS- 10.12.6, Appium Desktop client 1.4.0,iOS Simulator iPhone 7 (OS version 10.3.1), xCode -8.3.3. Our development team has provided with an iOS app built in debug mode by selecting target device as a simulator(for x86 architecture). I have given .app path of app in debug folder. If I use the .ipa file the app installs on the simulator, launches and crashes immediately.
I am stuck at the info.plist file that is not parsing. Please guide me through, all suggestions are appreciated. When I run the C# Script following appium log is generated:
