k         


        

Answer 1

Use killall "iPhone Simulator"

With XCode 6, use killall "iOS Simulator" (thanks @gempewsaw)

With XCode 7, use killall "Simulator" (thanks @Stanislaw)

With XCode 8, killing the Simulator process is sometimes not enough, also need to kill process com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService (thanks @bensnider)
