Can you run a specific Xcuitest from the command line?

Question

Playing with iOS 9.0, Xcode GM and the new Xcuitesting framework. How can I run a specific test from the command line instead of having to click play in the ide? I know there's a shortcut to run all the tests but I want to run a single test.

Thanks!

You should be able to do that with xctool command line tool for running specific test class,

xctool -workspace YourWorkspace.xcworkspace -scheme YourScheme test -only myUITestTarget:UITestClass

You can also use xcodebuild to run the entire test suite as explained here, https://krausefx.com/blog/run-xcode-7-ui-tests-from-the-command-line

is this tool appropriate for the XCode-UI-Test? I tried it but i have this error: [Info] Loading settings for scheme '....' ...ERROR: build-tests: 'XTests' is not a testing target in this scheme. – Circumlocution

xctool doesn't support UI tests according to this issue: github.com/facebook/xctool/issues/534 . – Burin
