What happened?

We have detox tests implemented on our apps.
But since the latest upgrades (RN, Xcode), after succesfully ending the first test of a file, when it's time to run again the beforeEach hook:

  beforeEach(async () => {
    await device.reloadReactNative();

tests start failing:

 ● Login › should enable biometric and log in with biometric

    The pending request #-1000 ("reactNativeReload") has been rejected due to the following error:

    The app has crashed, see the details below:

    Signal 11 was raised

I'm building the app with NO_FLIPPER.

Can you help me understand what's going on?

What was the expected behaviour?

With previous version of RN/XCode, all the tests where running well, without any crash.

Was it tested on latest Detox?

• I have tested this issue on the latest Detox release and it still reproduces.

Did your test throw out a timeout?

• I have followed the instructions under Identifying which synchronization mechanism causes us to wait too much.

Help us reproduce this issue!

After some days, I can say it's await device.reloadReactNative(); causing the problem.
I've replaced it with launchApp, and every test just works fine (taking a lot more time).

Not stale. There's any one that can get an eye on this?

@angelica-snowit could you try again with Detox v20.9.1, where issues with xcode 14.3 have been fixed?

[John251314]

I have the same issue with detox 20.9.1, Xcode 14.3.1

[angelica-snowit]

I've done a quick test and it seems that the app now is just blank instead of crashing.

Still present.

Hey @angelica-snowit, could you please try the latest version of Detox and confirm if the issue persists?
Are you experiencing a crash or getting a blank page? Also, could you please attach the device + detox logs here?

[angelica-snowit]

It seems to be resolved with 20.12.1! Thank you :)
