copied!<p>I have an OCUnit Test class: PatientTestViewControllerTests. Below is the interface:</p> <pre><code>@interface PatientTestViewControllerTests : SenTestCase @property (nonatomic, strong) PatientTestViewController *testController; @end </code></pre> <p>and setUp:</p> <pre><code>- (void) setUp { UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Testing" bundle:nil]; self.testController = [storyboard instantiateInitialViewController]; } </code></pre> <p>The 'Testing' storyboard is the only storyboard in my app, and is set as the app's main storyboard. The PatientTestViewController is set as the storyboard's only view controller.</p> <p>I have one test in my test class:</p> <pre><code>- (void) testInitialTestingStoryboardViewIsPatientTest { STAssertTrue([self.testController isMemberOfClass:[PatientTestViewController class]], @"Instead of the %@, we have %@",[PatientTestViewController class], [self.testController class]); } </code></pre> <p>This test fails with the following log message:</p> <p>error: -[PatientTestViewControllerTests testInitialTestingStoryboardViewIsPatientTest] : "[self.testController isMemberOfClass:[PatientTestViewController class]]" should be true. Instead of the <strong>PatientTestViewController</strong>, we have <strong>PatientTestViewController</strong></p> <p>How can this be? Since </p> <p><code>[self.testController isMemberOfClass:[PatientTestViewController class]]</code> </p> <p>is apparently false, how can the test log say that both </p> <p><code>[self.testController class]</code> and <code>[PatientTestViewController class]</code></p> <p>look the same? </p> <p>Additional Info:</p> <ul> <li>using <code>[self.testController isKindOfClass:[PatientTestViewController class]]</code> in the test also fails</li> <li><p>using <code>[self.testController class] == [PatientTestViewController class]</code> fails also.</p></li> <li><p>using <code>[self.testController isKindOfClass:[UIViewController class]]</code> PASSES.</p></li> <li>using <code>[self.testController isMemberOfClass:[UIViewController class]]</code> FAILS.</li> </ul>
