Detox support for RN 0.67.5 - launchApp() fails because of app_status: busy

[bsrinivasan93]

Description

I've been trying to build & run Detox tests for a React Native app with version 0.67.5. I saw that Detox doc says Detox works only with RN >= 0.68.x. There are plans to upgrade the RN version in app, but it might be a while.

On both iOS simulator & Android emulator, I am able to do detox build but detox test --configuration <config> --record-logs failing --loglevel trace --take-screenshots failing is always failing because the app_status is busy. I've attached detox & device logs for both platforms. Is there a way to run Detox on RN 0.67.5 apps(perhaps use older version of Detox, node, etc?) Would appreciate any help/direction here.

Workarounds tried: increase testRunner.setupTimeout=180000 in .detoxrc.js, setting detoxEnableSynchronization: 0 in device.launchApp()
