Weird UI issues when running detox tests agains 0.57.x (0.57.4 included)

[sync]

Description

Seeing all our text inputs and lots of visual glitches when running our test suite. It adds grey background everywhere.

Test suite is also having a hard time entering text on multiline text fields. Detox seems to be unhappy about keyboard was not shown on screen.

Steps to Reproduce

Upgrade to latest react native version 0.57.4 and build and run test suite with latest detox.

If I kill the app and restart it manually (not using detox). UI is back to normal.

Does this reproduce in Detox’ own test suite? If not, can you please attach a small demo project, reproducing the issue?

haven't tried, will do this today

Created a sample app and was unable to reproduce so will close

If you continue seeing these issues, let us know in a new issue. It is a strange issue as Detox should not be interfering with any view rendering. There is a low chance that EarlGrey does, which is why I asked for a demo project.
