SwiftMonkey is a Swift framework for randomised monkey testing of iOS apps, generating random user input events through Xcode's UI testing framework to stress-test apps and surface rare crashes. Its companion SwiftMonkeyPaws visualises the generated touches so crashes can be traced back to the events that caused them.
Use cases
- find rare crashes in an iOS app that can't be reproduced manually
- stress-test an iOS app with randomised touch input
- reproduce memory leaks that require lots of UI interaction
- visualise random touches during UI testing to debug crashes
- add fuzz-style randomised UI testing to an Xcode test target
When to choose
- you want randomised monkey testing integrated into Xcode's UI testing framework
- you need to hunt down rare, hard-to-reproduce crashes or leaks in an iOS app
- you want visualisation of generated touch events while stress-testing
When to avoid
- you need deterministic, scripted UI tests rather than random input
- you're testing Android or non-iOS platforms
- you need a maintained, actively developed solution - the project sees only occasional releases
