Description

I'm trying to use set-simulator-location for testing behaviour on CI using Detox. It works fine when running locally, but does not work at all when running on Github Actions CI.

Has anyone encountered this? Is it a known limitation or is there some build configuration that is necessary to enable location setting on CI servers?

No source files or tests are named. Start by reproducing set-simulator-location with Detox on GitHub Actions and compare the CI behavior with a local run; done means identifying whether this is a CI limitation or required configuration, then fixing it or documenting the result.
