During my execution of script I am getting the above issue.

Request the team to help me in identifying the issue and how to resolve it.

Thanks, Goutham

Answer 1

1. Run the below command in terminal to open WebDriverAgent project.

    Open usr/local/lib/node_modules/appium/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/WebDriverAgent/WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj
   

2. Now this will open the WebDriverAgent project in xcode.

3. Go to build settings of the project as shown in below screenshot and add the development team.

4. If no options are available in development team to select then follow the below procedure to add the account.

   a. Click on xcode and navigate to preferences.
   b. Click on Accounts.
   c. Click on ‘+’ symbol and add the account same as the account used for the code signing activity.

5. Now you can select the added account in Development Team.

6. The account selected for the development team should be same as the account selected for code signing activity.

7. Now add development team for all the targets also similarly by navigating to build settings.

8. Run the code to check for any errors and build succeeded message should be displayed.

Please refer Bluedev comment as well.

Answer 2

if you are unable to execute appium script even after creating a developer team and building the app in Xcode..

Follow the steps given in the below link and try running appium after those steps, I tried it (note: there were some unthinkable libraries missing installation:) and working for me. I am having Mac OS 10.12.5 and Appium version 1.6.5. Hope this is helpful.
