Stop resetting simulator for tests

I am running Calabash-IOS on my simulator. If I type cucumber in the terminal while the application is already running, it will shutdown the whole simulator, and start a new instance of it, and then runs all the tests. It runs all my login scenarios and outlines just to test one thing after the user has logged in.

Is there a way to disable this so that tests run from where I left a view open?

That's my configuration in the support folder:

01_launch.rb

require 'calabash-cucumber/launcher'

# You can find examples of more complicated launch hooks in these
# two repositories:
#
# https://github.com/calabash/ios-smoke-test-app/blob/master/CalSmokeApp/features/support/01_launch.rb
# https://github.com/calabash/ios-webview-test-app/blob/master/CalWebViewApp/features/support/01_launch.rb

module Calabash::Launcher
  @@launcher = nil

  def self.launcher
    @@launcher ||= Calabash::Cucumber::Launcher.new
  end

  def self.launcher=(launcher)
    @@launcher = launcher
  end
end


$testServerRunning = false


Before do |scenario|
  scenario_tags = scenario.source_tag_names
  if !$testServerRunning || scenario_tags.include?('@restart')
    if $testServerRunning
      shutdown_test_server
    end

    start_test_server_in_background

    $testServerRunning = true
  end
end

After do |scenario|
  Cucumber.wants_to_quit = false
  if scenario.failed?
    screenshot_embed
  end
end

env.rb

require "calabash-cucumber"

# Cucumber -d must pass, but support/env.rb is not eval'd on dry runs.
# We must detect that the user wants to use pre-defined steps.
dir = File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__))
env = File.join(dir, "env.rb")

contents = File.read(env).force_encoding("UTF-8")

contents.split($-0).each do |line|

  # Skip comments.
  next if line.chars[0] == "#"

  if line[/calabash-cucumber\/cucumber/, 0]
    require "calabash-cucumber/calabash_steps"
    break
  end
end

From the Calabash::Cucumber::Launcher documentation

Attaching to the current launcher in a console

If Calabash already running and you want to attach to the current launcher, use console_attach. This is useful when a cucumber Scenario has failed and you want to query the current state of the app.

In theory this means you could use console_attach to connect to a running calabash instance.
