Test bundle could not be loaded because an unanticipated error

Question

Recently I have started writing test case for one old static library. I have loaded the library to Xcode 5,Since Static Library is old , I have to manually add TestProject with Test Target.

When I am trying "Product-->Test" , It launches emulator and Console shows following error

The test bundle at /xxx/xxx/xxx/StaticLibTest.xctest could not be
loaded because an unanticipated error occurred: Error
Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3587 "The bundle “StaticLibTest.xctest”
couldn’t be loaded because it is damaged or missing necessary
resources."
(dlopen_preflight(/xxx/xxxx/xxx/Debug-iphonesimulator/StaticLibTest.xctest/StaticLibTests):
no suitable image found.  Did find:

I don't have any clue why this error comes.

Any help for pointing out to the right direction will be really appreciated.

If other readers are getting this error, and you're using Carthage to add a framework, ensure the Copy Files phase is with Destination: Frameworks.

If you accidentally add the frameworks to a Copy Files phase with a different target (other than Frameworks), or Copy Bundle Resources, this will also produce the damaged / invalid bundle error message.

I was able to resolve this issue by setting the host application for the test target:
