My simulator is starting up, and showing what looks like a successful launch:

Launching took 6.652245 seconds

Except the feature file isn't running ... it just sticks there. Could this be in simlauncher? Or maybe I have a config messed up?

It was running ok earlier ... then I ran a few other simulator tasks and it seems to be out of sync.

Thanks in advance !

  • looks like the simulator is unresponsive. When I start the simulator manually and click on the app, it's responsive. But launching through cucumber, the app loads, but is unreqponsive. – ether_joe Mar 11 '15 at 19:30
  • annnd ... I have found a fix but not sure what exactly is going on. Looks like there is a bug with UIAutomation when excessive logging is happening and, indeed, our app does dump a lot on initial load. Removing some of that configuration seems to have brought me back to life. It sure does look like a low level freeze in UIA. https://github.com/calabash/calabash-ios/wiki/Hot-Topics – ether_joe Mar 11 '15 at 20:23
  • A couple days in, this is indeed caused by the above logging bug. Reducing the verbosity of our logs alleviates the problem. – ether_joe Mar 13 '15 at 21:36
