Description

Being able to validate FT application state would help increase the reliability in the server behavior. Should see what properties can be checked to find the following:

  • FT is open/in focus
  • FT is in a call lobby (pre-join)
  • FT is in a call, with sidebar closed
  • FT is in a call, with the sidebar open (this is preferable)

This could be then used to validate calls are joined/left correctly, as well as determine if APIs are being called in the right order.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate MacOS accessibility properties of FaceTime to determine how to detect open/focus, lobby, in call with sidebar states. Then implement a function in Go that checks these properties.
