Linker error comes while running as well as testing the Xcode workspace after updating KIF framework via cocoapods

问题

I have an Xcode workspace in which I have updated to KIF 2.0(pod update via terminal & pod 'KIF' in the podfile) after that I have configured the workspace as per the instructions provided in https://github.com/kif-framework/KIF#configure-the-testing-target(installation with Cocoapods section).But when I tried to execute the project as well as Run my test target it throws an error,

ld: building for iOS Simulator, but linking against dylib built for MacOSX file '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/SenTestingKit.framework/SenTestingKit' for architecture i386
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I have also checked this link:https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/kif-framework/EilvCp2psZA/huUQ3sGpmwQJ . But still the issue persists.

How can I correct it? The screen shot is provided below.

When I tried to Run it using iPhone 5 it shows 5 linker error such as

ld: warning: ignoring file /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/SenTestingKit.framework/SenTestingKit, missing required architecture armv7s in file /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Frameworks/SenTestingKit.framework/SenTestingKit (2 slices)

Same issue here with the latest cocoa pods version.

You can solve this by following this steps:

• Select the Pods project
• Click on build settings
• Change Build Active Architecture Only to 'No'

回答2:

Go to your target settings and add SenTestingKit to Link binary with libraries.

It worked for me to remove the XCTest framework. I know that might be something you don't want to do though.

I have solved the problem with the help of my colleague. Two steps: 1、just update the cocoapods to 0.29.0,because 0.29.0 just fix a bug,more detail ,see: https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/1558 use command: sudo gem install cocoapods pod install pod update 2、if you want run your app on ios devices,just change the Build Settings->Architectures,the value of it to (Standard Architecture (armv7,armv7s)),
