May those elements are ‘invisble’ (visible=false)? I’m facing a similar issue since I’ve updated to 1.6 and XCUITest. The problem for me is that the DOM elements that has visible=false attribute can’t be extracted as WebElement, so I can’t perform any action on it.

My issue is documented at thead [How to handle XCUITest 'visible' attribute?](https://discuss.appium.io/t/how-to-handle-xcuitest-visible-attribute/13663/4) check it out may it’s the same cause.
