Testing UIWebView with Xcode UI Testing

Question

I'm using new Xcode UI Testing from XCTest Framework with the Xcode 7 GM. I've got an app with simple UIWebView (it's just a navigation controller + view controller with web view and button) and I want to check following scenario:

1. Web View loads page www.example.com
2. User taps on button
3. Web View loads some page with URL: www.example2.com

I want to check which page is loaded in UIWebView after pressing button. Is this possible with UI Testing right now?

Actually I'm getting web view like this:

let app:XCUIApplication = XCUIApplication()
let webViewQury:XCUIElementQuery = app.descendantsMatchingType(.WebView)
let webView = webViewQury.elementAtIndex(0)

Answer 1

You won't be able to tell which page is loaded, as in the actual URL that is being displayed. You can, however, check assert content is on the screen. UI Testing provides a XCUIElementQuery for links that works great with both UIWebView and WKWebView.

Keep in mind that a page doesn't load synchronously, so you will have to wait for the actual elements to appear.

let app = XCUIApplication()
app.launch()

app.buttons["Go to Google.com"].tap()

let about = self.app.staticTexts["About"]
let exists = NSPredicate(format: "exists == 1")
expectationForPredicate(exists, evaluatedWithObject: about, handler: nil)

waitForExpectationsWithTimeout(5, handler: nil)
XCTAssert(about.exists)

XCTAssert(app.staticTexts["Google Search"].exists)
app.links["I'm Feeling Lukcy"].tap()

There is also a working test host that goes along with the two links if you want to dig into the code.
