Xcode 8 Beta - Convert to Current Swift Syntax Failed: Could not find test host


This worked for me:

  1. Select the Xcode project in the lefthand browser.
  2. Click on your test target in the Project's General tab.
  3. Disclose "Testing". In my project the "Host Application" pulldown button was blank. Select your appropriate host application.
  4. Try building your test target now. If that succeeds then converting syntax should as well.

I had this problem after installing the Xcode 8 beta so I assume this is related.

It cost me a bit of time to find the "Host Application" pulldown mentioned in the otherwise very helpful answer by iluvcapra.

So this is what he meant:

This is where you find the pulldown menu. Select your main target.

This is where you find the pulldown menu


I find easy fix for this, just edit your Scheme and disable tests.

And run conversion again.
