Web and Mobile Software Developer Design Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 2/29/2016 "KIF is great for developers writing their own tests" 4/5 What do you like best about KIF iOS? KIF works really well for what it does. I found writing tests to be straightforward and I enjoyed the workflow of writing everything in one language (Objective C) and seeing the results of my UI tests in XCode right next to the results of my unit tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about KIF iOS? I have no complaints with KIF itself. It's a great library for what it does and when it was made. The syntax is not particularly beautiful but that probably has more to do with Objective C itself than this library. The main issue is that other tools have come along that are probably more helpful, including increasingly better support for UI testing within XCode itself, but also tools like Appium which allow you to use existing Selenium toolsets and also to connect to Sauce Labs itself and their many devices and versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering KIF iOS: If you're a small team where developers write and consume the tests and you want to work all in one language it could be a good fit. If you need to use Sauce Labs or Gherkin or have engineers with expertise in Selenium-based tools Appium might be a better fit. Finally I wouldn't use KIF on a new project without considering XCode 7's new UI testing tools first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is KIF iOS solving and how is that benefiting you? I just needed a quick and effective way to verify the UI worked and continued to work and as such it performed brilliantly. I was also using the Lela framework to verify screenshots of the UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
