+## Setting Up XCUITest
+---
+
+**Install Appium XCUITest Driver**
+
+Clone Appium XCUITest Driver repo https://github.com/appium/appium-xcuitest-driver
+
+```
+git clone --recursive https://github.com/appium/appium-xcuitest-driver.git
+cd appium-xcuitest-driver
+npm install
+```
+
+Set your appium path to the appropriate location (Where you cloned appium-xcuitest-driver) and you can 
+start the driver by doing:
+
+```
+node .
+```
