Swift migration bug

I found a bug in Swift 2.3 migration in the XCUITests, not sure if the bug
goes to swift.org or to Apple.

UI test generator uses the syntax (XCUIElement).children(matching: .other)
but the compiler only recognizes childrenMatchingType(.Other), and you have
to manually change the instances. Makes generating UI Tests a pain!

Please open a bug at https://bugs.swift.org <Issues · apple/swift · GitHub; and then it can be re-routed if necessary. If you can attach the snippet of code with before/after that would help.

Thanks!

Then Jordan Rose closed it as not a Swift bug. :)

Ha, sorry to get to these in the wrong order. The real rule is "is the feature part of the Swift Open Source project", but certainly a normal Xcode user isn't thinking about whether the command they just used "came from Xcode" or "came from Swift".

Radars will always get to Apple Swift people if it turns out to be a Swift issue, but bugs.swift.org has fewer communication restrictions and allows non-Apple people to help. If it's not clearly a Swift issue ("the compiler crashed") or an Xcode issue ("I can't open my project"), it's a toss-up. But no harm done (and thanks for reporting the bug in the first place).

P.S. Why did I ask you to file the bug at bugreport.apple.com yourself? Because if I did it then you'd never hear when it was fixed, and wouldn't get the chance to test it on your own code and say "no, you fixed the wrong thing". :-)

No worries, since it was related to changing Swift syntax I thought it might end up being in some schema file maintained by the Swift team, thus the original question. :) Easy enough to add it to my list of radars.
