SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill streamlines the debugging process by allowing you to run specific test targets, classes, or individual methods instead of executing the entire test suite, which saves significant development time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Granular Execution: Run tests at the target, class, or method level using Xcode or command-line tools.
  • Automated Reporting: Provides concise summaries of test results, including failure details and log paths, without cluttering your workspace.
  • Use Case: When working on a specific feature like MovieDetails, use this skill to run only the relevant view model tests to verify your changes instantly.

Quick Start

Use the test-single skill to run the MovieDetailsViewModelTests class within the MovieDetailsFeatureTests target.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a specific Swift test class without executing the entire test suite?

To run a specific Swift test class, you can execute targeted test suites at the class, target, or method level using Xcode or a command-line fallback, isolating code changes to verify updates instantly without running all tests.

Can I execute individual Swift unit test methods from the command line?

Yes, you can execute individual Swift unit test methods from the command line using the fallback CLI interface, which provides automated testing and reports pass/fail status alongside diagnostic logs for the specified methods.

What is the best way to isolate and debug a failing Xcode unit test?

The best way to isolate and debug a failing Xcode unit test is to execute only the relevant test target or method, which streamlines the debugging process and provides concise failure details and log paths without cluttering your workspace.

Do I need a specific Xcode workspace setup to run targeted Swift unit tests?

Yes, you need access to the project workspace and standard Swift testing infrastructure to run targeted Swift unit tests, ensuring the environment can accurately report pass/fail status and diagnostic logs for the executed methods.

Why does running my entire Swift test suite take so long during debugging?

Running your entire Swift test suite takes long during debugging because it executes all tests rather than just the modified code, so executing specific test targets or methods saves significant development time by verifying only code changes.

Does targeted Swift test execution work with both Xcode and command-line workflows?

Yes, targeted Swift test execution works with both Xcode and command-line workflows, providing an Xcode-integrated workflow and a fallback CLI interface to automate testing and report diagnostic logs for specific test targets.
