Executing Car Rental on iOS

The Car Rental automated test scripts are part of the TestArchitect test suites provided in the sample repository that demonstrate automated testing of the AUT on the iOS platform.

Ensure that the following requirements are met before you execute Car Rental automated tests on the iOS device.

• TestArchitect Agent and the Car Rental application are installed onto the iOS device.
• The iOS device is configured for automated testing.

• In order to ensure that the start program built-in action can successfully launch Car Rental on iOS devices, refer to Launching an AUT.
• In additional, to ensure that the select built-in action can successfully pick specific dates on the DatePicker control on iOS devices, set the date format on the devices to MM/DD/YYYY by selecting the United States region in Settings > General > International > Region Format.

1. Connect the iOS device to the host machine via USB cable.
