iOS UITests - How to distinguish two different XCUIElement?

While iOS UITesting, how can I distinguish between two different XCUIElement?

For example I have two different UIButton with same label string "Button". How to check they are different? Do XCUIElement provides ID or any distinct property?

Add an accessibilityIdentifier to each button in your app's code and access each button by its identifier in your tests to tell them apart. Accessibility identifiers are not user-facing, even to Accessibility users, so this will not affect your user experience.

// app code
buttonA.accessibilityIdentifier = "buttonA"
buttonB.accessibilityIdentifier = "buttonB"

// test code
let app = XCUIApplication()
let buttonA = app.buttons["buttonA"]
let buttonB = app.buttons["buttonB"]
