Is it really the way to debug your iOS apps, add some features instead of tests?

  As with every single piece of software in the world, that would be up to the people who implement it.

    I just asked if this is a common way to do this, but apparently all the iOS devs felt offended - I will not comment on this. Thanks for the answer anyway :)

  Like any software project with lots of moving parts, it would be great if one could develop an iOS app in a vacuum, writing tests as required, and using them to guarantee a perfect product. In reality, that never works. I would expect that these features are actually mostly used by QA or product owners for acceptance testing. The reason they typically exist in my experience is that it can be difficult to trigger the conditions required using other means.

  How do you test if a reminder notification really launches on a device after 5 seconds?

    In theory, a device should be able to be put into full debug mode where the SDK allows access to basically everything unsandboxed so your test case could actually verify that the notification was correctly delivered.
