# Tuist Test Insights for Xcode

## Summary

Tuist has launched Test Insights, a feature that adds Xcode test analytics for both CI and local runs, complementing the earlier Build Insights product. It surfaces per-test-case timing, failure links, flakiness detection groundwork, and cross-environment/CI-agnostic performance tracking, using xcresulttool to extract data from .xcresult bundles and ClickHouse to store it. Setup requires a Tuist account and running `tuist inspect test` as an Xcode scheme post-action. Planned future work includes flaky test detection, optimized test sharding, slow test alerts, and snapshot diff attachments.

## Questions this post answers

### How does Tuist Test Insights extract test data from Xcode's .xcresult files?

It runs a post-action script (tuist inspect test) that locates the latest .xcresult in derived data using the $SRCROOT environment variable, then uses Apple's xcresulttool to convert it to JSON. Duration, test status, and failure messages are extracted and uploaded asynchronously to Tuist's server, which stores the data in ClickHouse for fast historical queries.

_Teams debugging flaky or slow Xcode test suites can track new CI tooling like this on daily.dev._

### What features are planned for Tuist Test Insights beyond the initial release?

Planned additions include flaky test detection with the option to skip flaky tests automatically, sharding optimization based on average test duration, slow test alerts for abnormally slow new tests, and snapshot attachment diffs shown directly in test details for projects using snapshot testing.
