Device runner for macOS?

Open 1Cor125 opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

I need a device runner for macOS and I am already using xunit device runners. Since Xamarin Forms 3, macOS is possible. Is there interest in supporting a macOS device runner? I would be willing to contribute a PR. Any insights would be appreciated.

Certainly happy to take a PR that adds mac support. It'll need a mac target in the main runner, but also a test app. Finally, it'll need some kind of project template to get people started and I'm not sure what VSfM uses for that?

Ok. Pulled the repo down last night and started perusing. I look forward to chipping away at this.

@onovotny I am currently working to take this on, just looking at the project structure. Do you have any preferences/recommendations on how to best integrate the Xamarin.Mac project?

@onovotny @1Cor125 I have a very early port of the device runner working for macOS. https://github.com/velocitysystems/devices.xunit/tree/macos_device_runner

Please see screenshots below. Needs some more work and UI tweaks, but its working!

Looks great!

Can it build (but not run) from a Windows VM like iOS does? I would open a PR with the updates and we can take it from there.

Thanks @onovotny. I've just made a couple of further tweaks to the branch and will open a PR. Unfortunately, I believe the MacOS project can't build on a Windows VM only using VS for Mac.

To this end, I have separated it into a seperate project/SLN which can be opened independently from VS for Mac but references all the existing files in xunit.runner.devices.
