Libraries not found when using CocoaPods with iOS logic tests

Question

I am trying to write some iOS logic tests against classes in my project that use functionality from some of the libraries in my podspec. I am using the standard unit test bu

Answer 1

I added :exclusive => true to avoid duplicated symbol errors in the application test target.

target 'myProjectTests', :exclusive => true do
   pod 'OCMock', :head
   pod 'XCTAsyncTestCase', :git => 'https://github.com/iheartradio/xctest-additions.git'
end

link_with 'myProject', 'myProjectTests'

When I changed the application test target to the logic unit test one, the linker error occurs. After I remove :exclusive => true, everything works again.

target 'myProjectTests', do
   pod 'OCMock', :head
   pod 'XCTAsyncTestCase', :git => 'https://github.com/iheartradio/xctest-additions.git'
end

link_with 'myProject', 'myProjectTests'

:exclusive => true states that everything outside do...end should NOT be linked to myProjectTests, which is reasonable in application test targets, but it will cause linker errors in logic test targets.
