iOS simulator mock location methods

[adelZilberman0]

Hi everyone, I'm building an Appium automation project for my app.
In order to test the app I need to set the location to different places in each test I execute. (on IOS simulator)
I have tried everything I found on the internet and nothing seems to work:

1. driver.setLocation() doesn't seem to be supported by appium. getting a syntax error as if it doesn't exist...
2. executeScript doesn't seem to work either.
   driver.executeScript("mobile: setLocation",
   "{ "latitude": " + latitude + ", "longitude": " + longitude + " }");
   getting this error -> org.openqa.selenium.UnsupportedCommandException

The only option left is to mock location through the simulator itself but it's not practical at all since I need to change it a few times while the automation runs...

Does anyone know of a way I could make this work? Or did anyone encounter such a problem?

I believe I replied to this in another location, but the second parameter to executeScript should not be a string but rather a map. The Java client does the conversion to JSON for you, so you must provide Java objects to the method, not JSON strings.
