My app target is building and running successfully on a device but I am facing this error while running the unit test target for my app. It specifically occurs during the copying face.

Answer 1

Roman's Answer is what did it for me. I had a circular dependency where appname.app was in my copy resources. I don't fully understand why removing that fixed the issue, but I figured I'd post here.

Answer 2

I think that your storyboard size is too large try breaking your storyboard file into multiple storyboards using storyboard references

watch this tutorial for storyboard reference :
