Tests not starting when app is a bitrise URL

The problem

Not able to start the test with app as a bitrise URL.

An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not extract Info.plist from application: Plist file doesn't exist: '... appium-app.app/Info.plist' (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError)

Environment

• Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: 1.11.0
• Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): 1.9.1
• Desktop OS/version used to run Appium:
• Node.js version (unless using Appium.app|exe):
• Npm or Yarn package manager:
• Mobile platform/version under test: iOS
• Real device or emulator/simulator: Real Device
• Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe:

Details

The file downloaded is saved as .app but it is actually an .ipa file, so tests are failing to start as there is no plist file on the root.

An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not extract Info.plist from application: Plist file doesn't exist: '... appium-app.app/Info.plist' (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError)

On version 1.9.1 it is working properly as the app is downloaded as .ipa then unzipped and everything works.

I don’t see any problems here. The downloaded file is only going to be extracted if either response headers point to the fact it is an archive or the file extension itself.
