Hi,
I have an app which has been signed with a developer profile. The app is already installed on the device. Then I tried to launch Appium inspector and I get error as “Failed to start an Appium session, err was: Error: Installing”
Appium Version:1.4.13
OS : OS X 10.11.1
iOS : 9.1
In my device Settings->General->Enable UI Automation is set to YES.
My Questions:
- Why I am seeing “App is not installed” in log when the app is already installed in device?
- Xcode instruments automation tool is able to lauch the app which means the app has right development profile.Or Am I missing something?
