I have an app that makes request to a REST service. Authentication is done using cookies. This already works.
What I have problems with is to test the case when the cookie is no longer valid and my code has to reauthenticate. To test this I have to wait until the cookie is invalid, which could take some time. To accelerate this I figured that if I delete the cookie it would have the same effect.
How to delete all cookies of an app on the iPhone simulator?
I already tried the following:
Deleting <app-dir>/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies doesn't work. It seems that my cookies are never written to this file.
Deleting all cookies in NSHTTPCookieStorage on app startup doesn't work either.
The cookies are located at:
/Users/<YourUsername>/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/<iOSversion>/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
You may need to quit out of Safari (in the fast app switching area) and then delete them so Safari won't have them in memory.
