RubyMotion lets us write functional tests for our controllers and interacts with its views through a set of high-level event generating APIs, by leveraging the functionality of Apple's UIAutomation framework without forcing us to write the tests in JavaScript.
Let's now write tests for user interface of the same application. In the following test case, we will test whether we have a label and a button on the screen.
