How should I launch app installed iPhone device by terminal?

I would like to launch app installed at iPhone device from terminal for development and testing.

I watched the below question and answer.

Launching instruments from command line with iPhone simulator

However I am using Mountain Lion and there are no such below file or path.

/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/Instruments/PlugIns/AutomationInstrument.bundle/Contents/Resources/Automation.tracetemplate

Would you tell me about how to use such automation launching of Instruments?

I had the very same problem a couple of days ago. Seems that starting from Xcode 4.4 Apple moved it to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/Instruments/PlugIns/AutomationInstrument.bundle/Contents/Resources/Automation.tracetemplate

But in Xcode 4.5 I didn't find this directory as well. So I continued my search and found tracetemplate file in /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/Instruments.app/Contents/PlugIns/AutomationInstrument.bundle/Contents/Resources/Automation.tracetemplate

BTW, there's a nice shell script which automates running stuff. All you need is to replace INSTRUMENTS_TEMPLATE with a proper path in automation.sh
