XCUITest recording fails with "Please select a scheme where "XCUITodo" is the executable"

Question

I'm using Xcode 8 to automate my application. I get started by downloading an existing code: XCUIToDo project. I opened the project in Xcode, and when I click on the Record button, I'm seeing a warning message "Please select a scheme where "XCUITodo" is the executable" and the record feature does not start. Please let me know where I'm missing.

TIA

Answer 1

Ensure that an executable is selected for your UITest scheme.

1. Select Product > Scheme > Manage Schemes
2. Select your UITest scheme in the list
3. Select Edit
4. Select the Info tab under Run
5. Ensure that the required Executable is selected
