### Automated Test Setup Workflow

Source: https://context7.com/wix/applesimulatorutils/llms.txt

A complete script example for preparing a simulator with cleared data, specific permissions, and biometric settings.

```bash
#!/bin/bash

SIMULATOR_NAME="iPhone 15 Pro"
SIMULATOR_OS="17.0"
BUNDLE_ID="com.example.myapp"

# Boot the simulator if not already running
xcrun simctl boot "$SIMULATOR_NAME"

# Wait for simulator to be ready
sleep 5

# Clear previous test data
applesimutils --byName "$SIMULATOR_NAME" --byOS "$SIMULATOR_OS" --clearKeychain
applesimutils --byName "$SIMULATOR_NAME" --byOS "$SIMULATOR_OS" --clearMedia

# Set all required permissions for the app
applesimutils --byName "$SIMULATOR_NAME" --byOS "$SIMULATOR_OS" \
  --bundle "$BUNDLE_ID" \
  --setPermissions "camera=YES, photos=YES, microphone=YES, location=always, notifications=YES, contacts=YES, calendar=YES, faceid=YES"

# Enable biometric enrollment for Face ID tests
applesimutils --byName "$SIMULATOR_NAME" --byOS "$SIMULATOR_OS" \
  --biometricEnrollment YES

# App is now ready for automated testing
echo "Simulator configured successfully for testing"
```
