以编程方式模拟iPhone上的键盘事件

Question

I was wondering if it would be possible to simulate keyboard events - like key down and key up characters - and send them to the iOS device. Basically, I want to simulate a user pressing a key on the keyboard.

Answer 1

have a look at "Automated GUI testing for iOS", for example Automated testing for iPhone and How about UI automation testing for iOS app with instruments & Javascripts

You might not want a full blown automated test solution, but that way you can simulate your keyboard events.

Answer 2

I don't think that's possible. But you could write code in textfield delegate or use NSNotificationCenter to get notification of each keypress. If that's what you are looking for.
