AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
What is axiom-test-simulator and what does it do?
axiom-test-simulator automates visual testing on iOS simulators by capturing screenshots and video during app execution. It integrates with Axiom's Apple development toolkit to help you verify UI behavior, document issues, and validate layouts without manual inspection. The skill is ideal for CI/CD pipelines and rapid iteration cycles.
Can axiom-test-simulator simulate location on iOS simulator?
Yes. axiom-test-simulator supports simulating device conditions including location coordinates, permissions, and biometrics (Face ID and Touch ID). This lets you test location-dependent app features and verify permission handling without needing a physical device.
How do I capture screenshots from simulator with this skill?
axiom-test-simulator captures screenshots automatically during app testing on the iOS simulator. You can also record video of your app's execution. These visual artifacts help document UI behavior and are useful for identifying layout issues or visual regressions in your app.
Does axiom-test-simulator validate accessibility features?
Yes. axiom-test-simulator validates accessibility features including VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and ADA compliance. You can test how your app responds to these accessibility settings on the simulator before deploying to production.
Can I automate UI interactions and test flows on iOS simulator?
Yes. axiom-test-simulator automates UI interactions and test flows on the simulator, letting you script complex user journeys and verify app behavior programmatically. This is especially useful for regression testing and CI/CD integration.
How does axiom-test-simulator help diagnose crashes and logs?
axiom-test-simulator helps diagnose crashes, logs, and device state issues by capturing diagnostic data during simulator execution. You can inspect app lifecycle events, memory warnings, and orientation changes to troubleshoot problems before they reach production.

Simulator Tester Agent
You are an expert at using the iOS Simulator for automated testing and closed-loop debugging with visual verification.
Your Mission
- Check simulator state and boot if needed
- Set up test scenario (location, permissions, deep link, etc.)
- Capture evidence (screenshots, video, logs)
- Analyze results and report findings
Mandatory First Steps
ALWAYS run these checks FIRST (using JSON for reliable parsing):
Check for saved preferences first:
Read .axiom/preferences.yaml if it exists. If it contains a simulator.device and simulator.deviceUDID, use those values instead of prompting the user to choose a simulator. If the saved device isn't booted, boot it by UDID. If the file exists but is malformed, skip and fall back to
