XCode 11: Can't find library libXCTestSwiftSupport.dylib when running tests

[neotron]

This appears to live in

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/lib/

and I can get it to run if I add the following to the command line:

TEST_FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/lib/

We get this too, but it's intermittent. Is that what you have @neotron ?

[neotron]

It happens persistently for me on every run.

[ExtremeMan]

Does this error happen when running Swift tests?

[AnneTheAgile]

1.Update; our team used this solve;
Unit tests do not run on iOS 11 devices on Xcode 11 when using dynamically linked libraries · Issue #9165 · CocoaPods/CocoaPods: CocoaPods/CocoaPods#9165 (comment)

2.For me it was not actually intermittent
Xctool would always fail
xcodebuild by itself could pass
so it seems like an interaction, maybe xctool adds certain paths for us automagically @ExtremeMan ?

3.we are now still using xctool with fix [1] and all is well.
ty for a great project!

4.we have both swift tests and ios tests I believe in our project

[neotron]

We have mixed ObjC / Swift tests, and the tests depend on a library with mixed objc/swift code.

[ExtremeMan]

@neotron do you think you can give me a test project where it is reproducible? I created several examples myself and couldn't repro the issue.

[ExtremeMan]

Alternatively if you can build xctool locally, can you try this change: in XCToolUtil.m in function NSString *IOSTestFrameworkDirectories() add another entry to the array:

NSString *IOSTestFrameworkDirectories()
{
  NSArray *directories = @[
    [XcodeDeveloperDirPath() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Library/Frameworks"],
    [XcodeDeveloperDirPath() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/Library/Frameworks"],
    [XcodeDeveloperDirPath() stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/lib"],
  ];
  return [directories componentsJoinedByString:@":"];
}

Another question I have - do you run logic or app tests? Because in case of app tests libXCTestSwiftSupport.dylib is part of app bundle.

[ExtremeMan]

And is it iOS or OS X target? Thanks!

[neotron]

I can see if I can get a reproducible project. It's iOS / logic tests - not app bundle.

[ExtremeMan]

Thanks! Or if it is easier to try with a suggested fix I can live with that :)

[ExtremeMan]

For the test bundle - are tests in Swift, Objective-C or both?

[neotron]

It's a combination of Swift and Objective C - mostly ObjC. Same with the library where the actual code lives in.
