Jenkins, xcodebuild -> JUnit-Tests with Appium?

Question

i am using Jenkins CI to build my iOS-Project. For this task, I use a sh-script to build the binaries directly from a git-repo by running xcodebuild and thats working pretty well. Currently I run JUnit-tests with appium from eclipse to test my app, but I would like to integrate them into Jenkins as well. I found some tutorials to integrate JUnit-tests into jenkins by using ant-scripts, but I dont use ant to build my project. how can I integrate my JUnit-tests into jenkins, without a ant-script? Or should I use a ant-script?

thank you.

Answer 1

I switched now to Gradle Build Automation which is much easier to handle and can be integrated into Jenkins as well by using Jenkins Gradle Plugin. xCode-Projects can automatically be build from Gradle by using Gradle xcode plugin and its easy to integrate JUnit or NGTests into a Gradle Scripts. In java test classes I am able to use selenium driver against appium server who's remote controlling iOS-Simulator.
