'Module was not compiled for testing' when using @testable

Question

I\'m trying to use Swift 2\'s new @testable declaration to expose my classes to the test target. However I\'m getting this compiler error:

Answer 1

In my case I used a custom build configuration for testing (called Test) and also cocoapods as a dependency manager

I had to add the following lines to the end of my Podfile to enable testability

post_install do |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            if config.name == 'Test'
                config.build_settings['ENABLE_TESTABILITY'] = 'YES'
            end
        end
    end
end

By default cocoapods sets ENABLE_TESTABILITY to YES only for Debug builds
