Is It Possible to Build and Distribute Simulator builds in AppCenter?
I have contacted Appcenter's Helpdesk. Following is their response :
You can build and distribute apps in App Center that can run on simulators and also on real devices.
For Android, if the build has been correctly signed, the APK can be installed on a real device and deployed to the Play Store. If the build has not been signed, the APK can be run on an emulator.
For iOS simulator, it is required for you to properly code sign the app. You can learn more about code signing for iOS here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/build/ios/code-signing Then please see the steps below to set up code signing when building your app in App Center:
To sign the builds produced from a branch, enable code signing in the configuration pane and upload a provisioning profile (.mobileprovision) and a valid certificate (.p12), along with the password for the certificate.
Download the ipa file to install on a simulator.
