Uninstalling the Silk Test Information Service from a Mac

To uninstall the Silk Test information service (information service) from a Mac, for example if you no longer want to execute tests against Apple Safari on the Mac:

  1. On the Mac, create a new shell file, for example uninstallInfoService.sh.
  2. Type the following code into the new file:
    #!/bin/sh
    
    if launchctl list | grep com.borland.infoservice ; then
      launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.borland.infoservice.plist
      echo "unloading Launch Daemon"
    fi
    
    if [ -d "/Applications/Silk" ]
    then
      sudo rm -rf /Applications/Silk
    fi
    
    if [ -f "/Library/LaunchAgents/com.borland.infoservice.plist" ]
    then
      sudo rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.borland.infoservice.plist
    fi
    
    if [ -f "/usr/local/bin/ideviceinstaller" ]
    then
      sudo rm /usr/local/bin/ideviceinstaller
    fi
    
    exit 0
  3. In the command line, type chmod +x uninstallInfoService.sh to make the shell file executable.
  4. Execute the shell file from the command line.
