It’s really disappointing to invest so much time into this framework only for it to seemingly be abandoned. Very glad it’s been updated for the transition process.
It has existed for almost 10 years by now which is longer than a lot of other frameworks I guess 😄 definitely still sad, but I think it’s also part of software development
Great video, but really if UI Test goes away, it's a bad story. The whole point of Xamarin was end to end everything in C# and XAML. Now if you are stating you have to use a different language and framework for building tests, the value add starts to go down because now you need developers that have to know a different language and entirely different system just to write UI Test. IMHO not continuing to support UITest is a bad move.
On my Xiaomi i had to enable "USB debugging (Security settings)" on top of the regular USB debugging. I don't know if this is for all android devices or Xiaomi specific. Caused a minor headache to figure.
With AppCenter being retired in March of 25 we are basically losing the ability to run our automated tests in the cloud as no other test cloud providers support UITest. Very disappointing

@@jfversluis For sure... I just happened to get burned as I literally started a new project on Xamarin.Forms just before the transition.
It seems like we can't get this to work with the iOS simulator? I'm getting errors when trying to build an ipa for the simulator.

Failed to launch deviceagent :( I was hoping that swapping over to Maui would fix this, but that's not the case.
Probably not since everything under the hood is mostly the same, sorry!

Thanks for sharing!

Very true, we as the .NET MAUI team are affected as well. We also have to transition all our tests to Appium
@@jfversluis May I know which test cloud provider will you be transitioning into?
