iOS Testing Automation - expo-mcp + xc-mcp Hybrid
Overview
Autonomous iOS testing combining expo-mcp (React Native component testing) with xc-mcp (simulator management).
Core principle: expo-mcp for UI testing (testID-based). xc-mcp for simulator lifecycle. AI validates visually.
Announce at start: "I'm using the claude-mobile-ios-testing skill for autonomous iOS testing."
When to Use
- Testing iOS app with visual verification (Gates 4A, 6A-E)
- Capturing screenshots with AI analysis
- Automating UI interactions by testID
- Multi-device testing (iPhone SE, 14, Pro Max)
- Verifying React Native components work correctly
Tool Selection Matrix

react-native-expo-development
Use when developing React Native components, installing packages via expo-mcp, implementing screens, or following RN best practices - integrates expo-mcp workflows (add_library, search_documentation) with production patterns from Gifted Chat and Stream
23claude-mobile-metro-manager
Use when starting Metro bundler for Expo development, debugging Metro errors, or enabling expo-mcp local capabilities - manages Metro lifecycle with EXPO_UNSTABLE_MCP_SERVER=1 flag for autonomous testing
4idb-claude-mobile-testing
Use when testing Claude Code Mobile app on iOS simulator with IDB CLI, when xc-mcp tools unavailable, or when needing testID-based UI automation - provides systematic workflow for finding elements by testID, tapping, typing, and verifying interactions using IDB accessibility tree
3claude-mobile-validation-gate
Use when executing validation gates 3A, 4A, or 6A-E, verifying phase completion with expo-mcp visual testing, or encountering test failures - automates gate execution with expo-mcp autonomous verification and HARD STOP enforcement
3claude-mobile-cost-tracking
Use when implementing Claude API cost tracking, monitoring token usage, displaying cost metrics in Settings, or user asks about costs - calculates exact costs using $0.003/1k input and $0.015/1k output pricing with per-session aggregation
2websocket-integration-testing
Use when testing WebSocket servers, validating message protocols, executing Gate 3A, or tempted to use mocks - enforces functional testing with wscat and real filesystem operations, NO MOCKS allowed
