Xcode Cloud in Xcode
Every build shows up in Xcode, down to each UI test with a screenshot of every step.

Overview

Xcode Cloud builds your app, runs your tests in parallel on Apple simulators and distributes builds to TestFlight, all in Apple's cloud. You set up workflows right from Xcode, with no servers or scripts to maintain.

Results show up in Xcode and App Store Connect, and every Apple Developer Program membership includes compute hours each month.

Workflows

Choose what starts a build and what happens next: test, analyze, archive, distribute.

Parallel testing

Run tests across many simulators and OS versions at once.

TestFlight delivery

Ship each successful build to your testers automatically.

Built-in reports

See build logs, test results and artifacts in Xcode and App Store Connect.
