Have you removed this components from Components storein Xamarin Studio ? If yes then how to force load calabash framework in xamarin ios project. If any alternative option is available in place of calabash by Xamarin for iOS only(Except UI.Test Xamarin framework) in Components, then let me know. Looking forward to response from your side.
Try using TestCloudAgent from Nuget.

My aim is to be able to reuse Xamarin Forms pages in my xamarin.ios project. I know that it is possible for ios extensions. However, can it be achieved in an xamarin.ios application project?
I am very new to xamarin platform, created PCL App for IOS and Android.
I will be using Esri SDK for Xamarin.
I have started with xamarin forms.
Is it possible to use Esri SDK with PCL(Xamarin Forms) or do i have to create a Shared project?
Is there a separate iOS and android Xamarin SDK ?
Please advice, i am looking for proper solution....
Thanks in advance
I was giving an interview for a company and I was told by the architect that they are creating iOS apps from Xamarin.iOS ( NOT Xamarin Forms) with MvvmCross framework and they use storyboards for UI. But if the UI is very simple they use XAML to create them.
I never knew we can use XAML for Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Droid. We had a small discussion/argument if that's even possible. He said they were using it successfully.
My question, is it really possible to use XAML in Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Droid. Because, if we can do that, I feel no use of using Xamarin forms.
If yes, can anyone provide some kind of documentation?
Thank you.
There is no way to design UI in XAML using Xamarin.Android or Xamarin.iOS, but you can include Xamarin.Forms page in Xamarin.Android or Xamarin.iOS app. This way you can have native app with UI using storyboards, but with some Xamarin.Forms pages designed in XAML.
There is a sample how to do that in Xamarin Forms samples project on GitHub.
Only Xamarin Forms support sharing of UI via XAML.
UI for iOS has to be made using xib or storyboard.
For Android using AXML.
Windows Phone, UWP, WinPhone Silverlight, Windows can use XAML for UI.
I have developed an app/component using Xamarin.Forms and as per the requirement I need to integrate that component with another app which is developed on Xamarin Native in Android as well as iOS.
Kindly help me with the suggestions or references
I've seen something like that on a sample called Native2Forms.
What it does, at least in Android, is to use a separete activity to integrate the Xamarin Forms PCL (FormsActivity).
I'm working with Xamarin plugin in Visual Studio 2013.
I have an iOS app and I want to add the Azure Mobile Services client component to that app. But when I click "Get more components" and search for the component in the store, it is not found.
I tried doing the same from the Xamarin Studio on my mac and the component is there.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Update
The component is now available in the component store for unified api projects. It became available 1 day after I asked my question :-)
My guess is that you are trying to add it to an iOS Classic project on the Mac with Xamarin Studio but using an iOS Unified project on Windows with Visual Studio.
Looking at the Xamarin Component Store the Azure Mobile Services client is currently only available for iOS Classic projects. You can see that by the tags. It has an ios tag but not an ios-unified tag.
Xamarin Studio will not show the component when you click Get more components if it is incompatible with the current project.
