I found that adding Hamcrest to my testing toolkit was a significant improvement over the GTM/SenTest assertions.

That created an entry in my Frameworks group and an entry in my test targets Link phase. I created the copy phase as you said above before the compile phase of my test target. I then setup my testBlahBlahBlah.m file to import "OCMock/OCMock.h". It all seems to work now. The build succeeds and the tests pass that use a mock object.</p> <p>What I don't understand is why this is all necessary. When I hover over the OCMock.framework in my Frameworks group, it shows the path is still /Library/Frameworks. Seems like my project is still then dependent on the system setup. So if I have the OCMock.framework copied into my project (somehow), why do I need to copy it into the BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR also? I guess my bigger problem is that I don't understand include and link paths when using XCode.</p> Ok, I added OCMock.framework to my project and only to my test target.

What I don’t understand is why this is all necessary. When I hover over the OCMock.framework in my Frameworks group, it shows the path is still /Library/Frameworks.

  • GTM can be set up to run on-device on the iPhone. So it might be interesting to build OCMock for a device target after all.

  • I had trouble including OCMock via

import “OCMock.h”

Instead I had to use

import “OCMock/OCMock.h”

Also, I found this confusing:

“drag the Copy Files phase, which I renamed it to “Copy OCMock”, between the Compile Sources and Link Binary With Libraries phases”

I eventually figured out that this meant: drag the “Copy OCMock” build phase so that it comes after “Compile Sources” and before the “Link Binary with Library”
