I am looking into Xcode and Xcui for web app for Instagram automation with Appium and cannot get it work. to start up recording, build or whatsoever it needs a valid executable which I don't have since i am not building an app. is there any way to launch Safari as the app and then record it and run tests? i want use Appium.







would i have to create a quick application that holds a web view in the app, that launches to my respective web page.?



I can write automated tests for this app which will simply land you on my web page

I will not have access to elements, like table views, cells, or anything in the XCUIelement tree

I will have to do everything based on frames and coordinates

I can determine where all your elements are and set them up as variables and call them like this:





XCUIApplication().windows.element(boundBy: 0).coordinate(withNormalizedOffset: CGVector(dx: 0.5, dy: 0.30))`





Is this the right Path ?
