The problem

Test fails when simulator is launched first time or after xcrun simctl erase all.
I have attached 2 videos below. Each video contains 2 attempts to run the test. 4 attempts in total.

Video script & steps to reproduce

  1. video1: run xcrun simctl erase all
  2. video1: attempt1 to run test (Sim17.5; iPhone 15) → FAILED
  3. video1: attempt2 to run test (Sim17.5; iPhone 15) → PASSED
  4. video2: run xcrun simctl erase all
  5. video2: attempt3 to run test (Sim17.5; iPhone 15) → FAILED
  6. video2: attempt4 to run test (Sim17.5; iPhone 15) → PASSED
