Getting all the UI elements of the current screen in UI testing or Unit tests

I am new to iOS and writing a UI test case for a screen. The thing is, I want to write such a test case where I want to test same behavior for a particular type of UIElement (for eg, same behavior for button type). So instead of writing tests for different screens I wanted to know if there's some way in XCUI or any other framework where we can get all UIElements present on the screen in some data structure. Thanks

You can get such data (elements, their labels, types, and other properties) with snapshot() method. You will get a tree of XCUIElementSnapshot. Also, you can get a dictionary representation.

Start reading documentation from here
