Can't run UI Testing on older project

Question

I'm trying to add and run UI Automation tests with Xcode 7 on an older project. Here's what I did:

1. Added a new UI Testing target
2. Changed the compiler version of that target to Default compiler (Apple LLVM 7.0)
3. Recorded a test using the iPhone 6 Plus iOS9 simulator (worked like a charm)

Now, when I try to run the recorded test I get the following error:

failed: caught "NSInternalInconsistencyException", "No target application path specified via test configuration: testBundleURL:file:///xxxxxxxxxxx/PlugIns/PageonceUITests.xctest/ productModuleName:(null) testsToSkip:(null) testsToRun:(null) reportResultsToIDE:no sessionIdentifier:<__NSConcreteUUID 0x7fc818d181a0> 7045B650-CDAF-4EC9-9738-83F78E1514D8 pathToXcodeReportingSocket:(null) disablePerformanceMetrics:no treatMissingBaselinesAsFailures:no baselineFileURL:(null) targetApplicationPath:(null) targetApplicationBundleID:(null)

This error seems to be complaining about "Target to be tested" field selected while adding UI Test Target.Does your "Target Application" property under UI Test Target -> General tab correctly shows your main app selected? A happy config would look like this,

Answer 2

Its might be due to some issue with your Target settings.

Try the following.

1. Delete the existing target .
2. Create a new Target by selecting "iOS UI Testing bundle" again.
3. Then link your test files one by one.

It works.
