Xcode Project
The Xcode Project build runner supports Xcode 3 (target-based build), Xcode 4 (scheme-based build), Xcode 5-12.
The runner provides structured build log based on Xcode build stages, detects compilation errors, reports tests from the xcodebuild utility, adds automatic agent requirements for the appropriate version of tools installed (Xcode, SDKs, and so on) and reporting tools via agent properties.
Working with different Xcode setups
If only one Xcode version is installed on the agent machine, it will be used by default. The agent restart is required if Xcode was installed/updated.
- If several Xcode versions are installed, perform one of the following:
specify the path to the required version in the "Path to Xcode" setting (see below) of the Xcode Project build step settings
select the default XCode distribution using the
xcode-selecttool (details on Apple.com).
Path to Xcode:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer.
Command to switch:sudo xcode-select -s path_to_xcode_distribution.

Working directory | Specify the build working directory. | |
Path to Xcode | Specify the path to Xcode on the agent. The build will be run using this Xcode. | |
Build | Select either a target-based (for project) or scheme-based (for project and workspace) build. Depending on the selection, the settings displayed will vary. | |
Scheme | Scheme-based | Xcode scheme to build. The list of available schemes is formed by parsing your project/workspace files in the VCS. Make sure your Path to the project or workspace is set correctly and click the Check/Reparse Project button to show/refresh the schemes list. Note that a scheme must be shared to be shown in the list (to check if your scheme is shared, verify that it is located under the |

Target | Target-based | Xcode target to execute. The list of available targets is formed by parsing your project files in the VCS. Make sure your Path to the project is set correctly and click the Check/Reparse Project button to show/refresh the targets list. |
Configuration | Target-based | Xcode configuration. The list of available configurations is formed by parsing your project files in the VCS. Since the configuration depends on the target, you must choose the target first. Make sure your Path to the project is set correctly and click the Check/Reparse Project button to show/refresh the configurations list. |
Platform | Target-based | Select from the default, iOS, macOS or Simulator - iOS or any other platform (if it is provided by the agent) to build your project on. |
SDK | Target-based | You can choose an SDK to build your project with (the list of available SDKs is formed according to the SDKs available on your agents for the platform selected). |
Architecture | Target-based | You can choose an architecture to build your project with (the list of available architectures is formed according to the architectures available on your agents for the platform selected). |
