Dr. Dominik Hauser is an iOS developer working for a small company in western Germany. In over 11 years as an iOS developer, he has worked on many different apps, both large and small. In his spare time, Dominik builds small (often silly) apps and explores how he can become a better iOS developer. He talks at conferences, writes books, and is active in the iOS community in general. His most successful open source component (in terms of stars) is a pull-to-refresh control for a table view that consists of an actual SpriteKit game. Before Dominik became an iOS developer, he was a physicist, researching the most powerful photon sources within our galaxy.

One key element here is the test navigator.

Test navigator

To open the test navigator, click the diamond with the minus sign in the navigator panel or use the shortcut ⌘ 6:

Figure 3.1 – The test navigator in Xcode

The test navigator shows all tests in the open project or workspace. In the preceding screenshot, you can see the test navigator for our demo project. In the project, there are two test targets, one for the unit tests and one for the UI tests. For complex apps, it can be useful to have more than one unit tests target, but this is beyond the scope of this book. The number of tests is shown right behind the name of the test target...
