Question

We are running a test automation suite and would like to prevent this message from appearing when using the iOS Simulator. Can anyone come up with a hack to automatically enable this when deploying a new app to the simulator?

Answer 1

do not put the

 if([CLLocationMannager isLocationServicesEnabled])

check before u start the CLLocationManager.
This boolean implicitly calls the Alert before the App starts finding the user location.

Also, the macros-

#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR

  code..without the if([CLLocationMannager isLocationServicesEnabled]) condition
//Simulator

#else
if([CLLocationMannager isLocationServicesEnabled]){code..}
// Device
#endif

can be put to use here..
