How do you test iOS apps (unit tests vs UI tests) effectively?

Answer

Use a layered testing strategy. - Unit tests (XCTest) for logic - Integration tests for networking/persistence - UI tests for critical flows Keep UI tests minimal to avoid flakiness. Use mocks/fixtures, deterministic data, and run tests in CI with reliable simulators.
