Installation

Provided you have set up all the prerequisites, or at the very least, a compatible macOS version with Appium, you can install the driver using Appium's extension CLI:

appium driver install xcuitest

You can also specify an exact driver version:

appium driver install xcuitest@7.16.0

Alternatively, if you are running a Node.js project, you can include appium-xcuitest-driver as one of your project dependencies. Refer to the Appium documentation for more information about this approach.

Verify the Installation

In order to check that the driver was installed correctly, simply launch the Appium server:

appium

The server log output should include a line like the following:

[Appium] XCUITestDriver has been successfully loaded in 0.789s
