I've followed this tutorial to setup unit testing on my app when I got a little stuck.
At bullet point 8 in that tutorial it shows this image, which is what I should be expecting when I build: alt text http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Xcode/Conceptual/iphone_development/art/logic_test_failure_text_editor.jpg
However this isn't what I get when I build. I get this error message: Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 1
as well as the error message the unit test has created. Then, when I expand on the first error I get this:
PhaseScriptExecution "Run Script" "build/3D Pool.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/LogicTests.build/Script-1A6BA6AE10F28F40008AC2A8.sh" cd "/Users/james/Desktop/FYP/3D Pool" setenv ACTION build setenv ALTERNATE_GROUP staff ... setenv XCODE_VERSION_MAJOR 0300 setenv XCODE_VERSION_MINOR 0320 setenv YACC /Developer/usr/bin/yacc /bin/sh -c "\"/Users/james/Desktop/FYP/3D Pool/build/3D Pool.build/Debug-iphonesimulator/LogicTests.build/Script-1A6BA6AE10F28F40008AC2A8.sh\"" /Developer/Tools/RunPlatformUnitTests.include:412: note: Started tests for architectures 'i386' /Developer/Tools/RunPlatformUnitTests.include:419: note: Running tests for architecture 'i386' (GC OFF) objc[12589]: GC: forcing GC OFF because OBJC_DISABLE_GC is set Test Suite '/Users/james/Desktop/FYP/3D Pool/build/Debug-iphonesimulator/LogicTests.octest(Tests)' started at 2010-01-04 21:05:06 +0000 Test Suite 'LogicTests' started at 2010-01-04 21:05:06 +0000 Test Case '-[LogicTests testFail]' started. /Users/james/Desktop/FYP/3D Pool/LogicTests.m:17: error: -[LogicTests testFail] : Must fail to succeed.

Now this is very odd as it is running the tests (and succeeding as you can see my STFail firing) because if I add a different test which passes I get no errors, so the tests are working fine. But why am I getting this extra build fail?
It may also be of note that when downloading solutions/templates which should work out the box, I get the same error. I'm guessing I've set something up wrong here but I've just followed a tutorial 100% correctly!
EDIT: According to this blog, this post and a few other websites, I'm not the only one getting this problem. It has been like this since the release of xCode 3.2, assuming the apple dev center documents and tutorials etc are pre-3.2 as well.
However some say its a known issue whereas others seem to think this was intentional. I for one would like both the extended console and in code messages, and I certainly do not like the "Command /bin/sh..." error and really think they would have documented such an update. Hopefully it will be fixed soon anyway.
UPDATE: Here's confirmation it's something changed since the release of xCode 3.2.1.
This image: alt text http://ing0.co.uk/info/pics/unittest-xcode-3.2.1.png is from my test build using 3.2.1. This one is from an older version (3.1.4): alt text http://ing0.co.uk/info/pics/unittest-xcode-3.1.4.png. (The project for both was unchanged).
A unit test is a function you write that tests something about your app. A good unit test is small. It tests just one thing in isolation. For example, if your app adds up the total amount of time your user spent doing something, you might write a test to check if this total is correct.
Adding a unit test in XcodeGo to File > New > Target. Select iOS Unit Testing Bundle and then click Next. When you create a new Unit Test target for your project, it consists of a template class.
Unit tests can be performed manually or automated. Those employing a manual method may have an instinctual document made detailing each step in the process; however, automated testing is the more common method to unit tests. Automated approaches commonly use a testing framework to develop test cases.
Double click 'Run script' under 'Targets'/'Your script target name' then type
# Run the unit tests in this test bundle. "${SYSTEM_DEVELOPER_DIR}/Tools/RunUnitTests" 1> /tmp/RunUnitTests.out
Basically you need to append
1> /tmp/RunUnitTests.out
to what is already there
Have you tried to set the build configuration to "Debug" for the test case ?
i did that, as shown at http://nothing2fancy.com/2009/08/04/failed-tests-for-architecture-i386-gc-off/ and it worked
