XCResultExtractor

A Python script to extract app console logs from an .xcresult , rather than just the test runner's logs you usually see (but it can extract those too).

Inspired by both a long term struggle with the logs missing from CI test runs and henrique's solution on StackOverflow.

Usage

To extract the app's console logs from an .xcresult pass it the path to it and specify your app's bundle ID. It'll output the logs to a file in the same directory called output.txt.

python3 xcresult_extractor.py --file YourTestApp.xcresult --bundleID com.yourapp.bundleid

To extract the test runner logs simply omit the bundleID arg

python3 xcresult_extractor.py --file YourTestApp.xcresult

Getting an .xcresult

There's an example .xcresult in this repo (generated from the test app in the repo) that you can try the script with, or if you want to get your own from Xcode:

• Run your UI tests
• Select the Product -> Show build folder in finder menu option
• Navigate to Logs/Tests/ and you should see your .xcresult file(s) there

Swift version

A Swift version is in development to replace the Python script, once ready.

You can try it out in the Swift folder by running:

swift run XCResultExtractor <path to .xcresult>
