Since updating to Xcode 8 and Appium 1.6, I have been unable to start running iOS Appium tests. I have not changed anything (in regards to path, capabilities, ios version etc) other than adding the capability automationName: XCUITest. Here is my environment:

Oct 21 16:16:52 apa-tomr routined[25342]: CoreLocation: Error occurred while trying to retrieve motion state update: CMErrorDomain Code:104
This error began to show up after updating to xcode 8 and using appium 1.6 instead of appium 1.5.3 (on which tests worked perfectly fine). The problem is that the the simulator runs, an error is thrown up without having installed the app. After the test throws the failure and finishes, however, the app is installed to the simulator. On Android, the app installs to the device and begins (although there are some other non-relevant issues). Please advise on how to fix this, if you require any further details let me know and I will do my best to provide them.
