Overall Satisfaction with XCTest
We use it to run unit tests on our app before we release to production.
- Simple unit tests
- Integrated into Xcode
- Supported officially by the Apple Tech Stack
- Occasionally confusing
- Fails with automated builds without giving a good reason
- Not super flexible
- Integration with existing tools
- Works with automated build processes
- Displays code coverage amount
- Prevents us from shipping bugs
- It does take extra time to write and maintain unit tests
- It can make it more challenging to onboard new developers
There is nothing that compares to just having it integrated into the toolset you already use.
