The other piece of magic you are doing is sending in the keystrokes / mouse movements. If you're running multiple iOS simulators on a Mac, how are the key presses / mouse movements not interfering with other users?

(don't see a link to reply under your last comment) yea, so the incoming keystrokes and mouse movements are managed through some custom OS X code as well. the specific method we're using is CGEventPostToPSN, more information here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Carbon/Reference/QuartzEventServicesRef/index.html#//apple_ref/c/func/CGEventPostToPSN https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Carbon...

(No reply button under your other comment either) Thats a pretty sweet API, never seen that before, thanks! I'm going to play around with it a bit to see what it can do!
