Add accessibility to your buttons and controls like this

    let button: UIButton = {
        let button = UIButton()
        button.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        button.backgroundColor = .green
        button.setTitle("GOT IT", for: .normal)
        button.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)
        button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonPressed), for: .touchUpInside)

        button.accessibilityIdentifier = "gotItButton"

        return button
    }()

Sample test

    func testExample() {
        // Use recording to get started writing UI tests.
        // Use XCTAssert and related functions to verify your tests produce the correct results.

        XCUIApplication().buttons["GOT IT"].tap()
        XCTAssertTrue(XCUIApplication().buttons["gotItButton"].waitForExistence(timeout: 10))
    }
