Probably Kiwi. I'll check.

I added a UILabel to one of my views and although it worked in the iPhone simulator it blew up in kiwi halting the thread. It happened on the line:

UILabel *label = [[[UILabel alloc] init] autorelease];

I narrowed it down to the init, as [UILabel alloc] did not cause the app to crash.

Is this a bug in kiwi or is there something I've failed to load? As far as I know it did not crash on init of other UIKit objects.

Thanks

I was able to reproduce this using a standard SenTestCase so I'm not sure it's related directly to Kiwi.

It would be interesting to know what the problem is though.

Hmm, yeah I will let you know if I figure it out. Thanks for looking into it!

As a pointer, this definitely seems to be related to the difference between what Apple used to distinguish as "logic tests" which were run by a script and "application tests" which were run by injecting the bundle into the app.

This seems to have all changed in Xcode 4 but I can't figure out how "application tests" are supposed to run. Searching on the Apple dev forums reveals others having similar issues with UIKit causing test suite crashes.

Did you ever find out a solution to this. I'm running into that same issue. When I init a UILabel in a unit test - I get a crash.
