KSScreenshotManager

Teach your computer to take screenshots of your app so you don't have to anymore. This project simplifies the process of creating automated screenshots of your iOS app. Some assembly is required, as you need to define your screenshots. Once you do that, this code will take care of the rest.

See this blog post for more details: http://ksuther.com/2013/02/24/automating-ios-app-store-screenshots

Adding this to your project

  1. Include KSScreenshotManager in your project. Adding it as a submodule is probably the easiest way to do this. Be sure to check out the WaxSim submodule as well by running git submodule update --init
  2. Add KSScreenshotManager.h, KSScreenshotManager.m, KSScreenshotAction.h, KSScreenshotAction.m to your project
  3. Subclass KSScreenshotManager and override setupScreenshotActions
  4. Customize make_screenshots.py and use it to generate your screenshots
    • More specifically, you'll probably need to change these variables: languages, devices, project_path, target_name, and app_name

Example project

An example project is located in Example (surprise!). It has a very simple KSScreenshotManager subclass named MyScreenshotManager. make_screenshots.py is configured to run this example by default. You can run it with the following command:

python make_screenshots.py ~/Desktop/screenshot_output

This will compile the sample project, WaxSim, then use WaxSim to run the simulator build and dump the screenshots to the specified directory.

Make sure that you've checked out WaxSim as a submodule by running git submodule update --init after cloning this repository, otherwise make_screenshots.py won't work.
