Bug report

Bug description:

The iOS testbed contains tooling to tail the log of a simulator while a test suite runs. It identifies the simulator by generating an initial list of simulators; and then polling until that list increases by one entry. To do this, it uses the commandxcrun simctl --set testing list -j

However, on a complete clean development machine, there are no testing devices yet, andxcrun simctl --set testing list -j returns an error code of 1, rather than an empty list.

Github Actions CI is one example of this configuration. A workaround is to manually create the~/Library/Developer/XCTestDevices folder.
