Answer 1

I faced this same problem with Xcode 7.0.1 and was able to resolve it by turning off the connected hardware keyboard in the simulator settings. Hardware -> Keyboard -> Connect Hardware Keyboard (uncheck this). link

is there a way to disable it automatically? It will be enabled with every run – Bary

Answer 2

Works for me for native screens:

extension XCUIElement {
    func typeTextAlt(_ text: String) {
        // Solution for `Neither element nor any descendant has keyboard focus.`
        if !(self.value(forKey: "hasKeyboardFocus") as? Bool ?? false) {
            XCUIDevice.shared.press(XCUIDevice.Button.home)
            XCUIApplication().activate()
        }
        self.typeText(text)
    }
}
