Is iOS 17 Currently Supported?

Support

I recently upgraded my XCode, MacOS and simulators to be able to test on iOS17. When trying to start a test from Appium I get an error saying WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner quit unexpectedly. A more detailed report is at the bottom of this post.

I have got the latest version of WebDriverAgent (5.83). I can build WebDriverAgent in XCode and can run the IntegrationApp on the Simulator. But when I try to run my app through appium inspector I get the error although WebDriverAgent is installed on the device.

I’m using the following capabilities to launch:

{
  "platformName": "iOS",
  "appium:deviceName": "iPhone 14 Pro",
  "appium:platformVersion": "17.0",
  "appium:bundleId": "com.me.myapp.debug",
  "appium:automationName": "XCUITest",
  "appium:udid": "518E855B-637B-4084-9295-74B11DDFC420",
  "appium:processArguments": "{\"args\":[\"-env=localhost\"]}"
}

Has anyone else had this issue or can point me in the right direction to solve it? A more detailed error report is below:

I changed your title to make what you are asking a little clearer. I’m sorry I don’t have an answer for you.

Thank you. I have solved this now. User error. I had downloaded and build the latest web driver agent but the agent contained inside the xcuitest driver was still old. Once I updated the driver it worked.
