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 ios-sim 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. Copy config.json.example and customize to suit your project

You can also use CocoaPods. You should create a duplicate target in XCode, so KSScreenshotManager won't be included in your release build. Then, add this to your Podfile:

# Replace 'Screenhots Target' with your separate target name
target 'Screenshots Target', :exclusive => true do
  pod 'KSScreenshotManager'
end

Example project

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

python make_screenshots.py config.json.example

This will compile the sample project, ios-sim, then use ios-sim to run the simulator build and dump the screenshots to /tmp/screenshots.

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