I am using XCode 7.1 Beta to develop an app in Swift 2.0. I am trying to access a few classes in the app (e.g. AppDelegate) from the UI Test class. I have enabled testability in the build settings for the app and added this line in the test class:

@testable import MyApp

I am accessing the AppDelegate like this:

override func tearDown() { super.tearDown() let delegate : AppDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate delegate.myFunc() }

However, I am running into a linker error:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "type metadata accessor for MyApp.AppDelegate", referenced from: MyAppUITests.MyAppUITest.tearDown (MyAppUITests.MyAppBasicUITest)() -> () in MyAppBasicUITest.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Same error when I access any other class in the app. Any idea how to access classes in the app from the test app ? Is it supported ?

I have the same issue and I can't find a solution. Have you figured out a way on solving it?

I got around this by copying build settings for "Linking->Bundle Loader" and "Testing->Test Host" from what I had in my Unit Test target

That being said, I now get a SIGKILL at [[[XCUIApplication alloc] init] launch];

Running into the same problem. Any ideas that doesn't lead to a SIGKILL 😝 ?

I found solution. Somehow my host aplication falled off: http://prntscr.com/af81si

After i returned it back and checked "Allow testing Host Application APIs" everything started to work again: http://prntscr.com/af82d5

I think this one is answered here.

It seems @testable import is only intended for UITests. I still encounter this problem with XCode9 and the only solution seems to be to add the classes that you need to the UITesting target.
