iOS UITest: How to test custom accessibility actions?

问题

I want to support VoiceOver. I have an UIButton inside of an UITableViewCell. According to a best practice I have disabled the button for accessibility (.isAccessibilityElement = false) and implemented a custom accessibility action for the cell (accessibilityCustomActions, NSAccessibilityCustomAction).

This way VoiceOver would not find and read the button as an own element. To make the feature behind the button accessible, I have added a custom accessibility action to the cell. With the custom action the user can select the action with swipe up and down. And then perform it with double-tap.

Now I want to test this action with an UITest. It's not possible to access the button inside of an UITest, because its disabled for accessibility.

How can I perform a custom accessibility action inside of an UITest?

Actually, you can't with {Xcode 11, iOS 13} and even if you can get an array of actions in UITest, it's nil and you can't fire the selectors from XCUITEST (UI tests don't get code-level access to the app as unit tests do).

Testing manually is currently the only way to test accessibility custom actions with VoiceOver.

Take a look at this answer given by an Apple engineer during the WWDC 2019.

Don't know if I got your question correct or if this would work, but you can try coordinate(withNormalizedOffset:) function to click on that UIButton

Eg.

let buttonRectMidX = 300.0
let cellWidth = 320.0
let buttonRectMidY = 25.0
let cellHeight = 50.0


app.tables.firstMatch
    .cells.element(boundBy: 2)
    .coordinate(withNormalizedOffset: CGVector(dx: buttonRectMidX / cellWidth, dy: buttonRectMidY / cellHeight))
    .tap()
