I try to load the same .xml file in project target and unit test target.

It seems to be a similar problem like this question: Xcode. Image resources added to a test target are not copied into the tests bundle

In project target, this code snipped worked fine. I just have to add the "xmlString.xml" file to "Copy Files" (see image 1).

func parseFile() {

   let stringPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "xmlString", ofType: "xml")

   let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: stringPath!)

   ...

}

If I run the code snipped in unit test target, I get an error because the .xml file can not be found. I tried to add the .xml file to the "Copy Bundle Resources" without any success (see image 2).

The only way to get it working is to use the absolute path

func parseFile() {

   let stringPath: String? = "/Users/.../Documents/Git/.../.../.../.../xmlString.xml"

   let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: stringPath!)

   ...

}

Is there a way to use the Bundle.main.path(forResource: "xmlString", ofType: "xml") function instead of the absolute path?

Thanks in advance!

You can get the bundle for your project like this:

let projectBundle = Bundle(for: AnyClassInMyProject.self)

where you replace AnyClassInMyProject with the name of an actual class in your project.

You can then get the path to your .xml file like this:

let stringPath = projectBundle.path(forResource: "xmlString", ofType: "xml")
