[xcodeproj] Running UI test from Xcode

[yongjincho92]

Hi all!

I have a question regarding running UI tests from Xcode IDE (xcodeproj generated project).

Q : Is it currently supported running UI tests from Xcode IDE with xcodeproj generated projects?

I added the following changes to the rules_ios repo to try out including SimpleTest ios_ui_test rule into one of the xcode projects

But as a result, no scheme was created for SimpleTest. I was able to run the SimpleTest successfully from the command line though.

@jerrymarino Given your activity on xcodeproj related issues, can you take a look on this issue and see if this is an actual issue in rules_ios or it's just an user error?

[thiagohmcruz]

@yongjincho92 did similar changes but without changing the Xcode version and I see that target there

Do you mind testing that on the latest version of the rules? Maybe consider undoing the Xcode version changes to see if it's related?

FWIW, it shows up for me with the changes above but it won't actually build+run/attach/etc. to the test in Xcode. I'm going to pick up work on #520 to hopefully get this solved. 👍
