testTarget(name:dependencies:path:exclude:sources:resources:cSettings:cxxSettings:swiftSettings:linkerSettings:)

Creates a test target.

Declaration

static func testTarget(name: String, dependencies: [Target.Dependency] = [], path: String? = nil, exclude: [String] = [], sources: [String]? = nil, resources: [Resource]? = nil, cSettings: [CSetting]? = nil, cxxSettings: [CXXSetting]? = nil, swiftSettings: [SwiftSetting]? = nil, linkerSettings: [LinkerSetting]? = nil) -> Target

Parameters

  • name:

    The name of the target.

  • dependencies:

    The dependencies of the target. A dependency can be another target in the package or a product from a package dependency.

  • path:

    The custom path for the target. By default, the Swift Package Manager requires a target’s sources to reside at predefined search paths; for example, [PackageRoot]/Sources/[TargetName]. Don’t escape the package root; for example, values like ../Foo or /Foo are invalid.

  • exclude:

    A list of paths to files or directories that the Swift Package Manager shouldn’t consider to be source or resource files. A path is relative to the target’s directory. This parameter has precedence over the Sources parameter.

  • sources:

    An explicit list of source files. If you provide a path to a directory, the Swift Package Manager searches for valid source files recursively.

  • resources:

    An explicit list of resources files.

  • cSettings:

    The C settings for this target.

  • cxxSettings:

    The C++ settings for this target.

  • swiftSettings:

    The Swift settings for this target.

  • linkerSettings:

    The linker settings for this target.

Discussion

Write test targets using the XCTest testing framework. Test targets generally declare a dependency on the targets they test.
