Unknown type name for UIViewController class

I have a subclassed UIView called TestView.h below:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "TestsViewController.h"

@interface TestView : UIView

// To get the navigation controller parent clas
@property (nonatomic, retain) TestsViewController *parent;

Line above causes error: Unknown type name TestViewController: did you mean CostViewController

- (id) initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame andObjects:(PFObject *)objects;

@end

And I have the TestsViewController.h below:

#import "CostViewController.h"
#import "TesView.h"

@interface TestsViewController : UIViewController <UITextViewDelegate, CostViewControllerDelegate, UIScrollViewDelegate>

@end

And in the implementation file I have for TestsViewController.m I call this:

TestView *tests = [[TestView alloc] initWithFrame:frame andObjects:replies];
tests.parent = self;

But the line above gives an error:

Incompatiable pointer types assigning to CostsViewController * from TestsViewController *

What is wrong with this?

CostViewController.h is:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

@class CostViewController;

@protocol CostViewControllerDelegate <NSObject>

// Functions for delegate

@end

@interface CostViewController : UIViewController <UIImagePickerControllerDelegate, UINavigationControllerDelegate, UITextViewDelegate, MBProgressHUDDelegate>
{
    MBProgressHUD *HUD;
    MBProgressHUD *refreshHUD;
}

@property (nonatomic, weak) id <CostViewControllerDelegate> delegate;

@end

Thanks.

This may be due to circular Import. Replace #import "TestsViewController.h" with @class TestsViewController

Seems like you have typo in your code.

@property (nonatomic, retain) TestsViewController

and

Unknown type name TestViewController:

What is your class name? Test or Tests ? And the same situation with other class

@interface CostViewController

and

Incompatiable pointer types assigning to CostsViewController

Instead of below code you may used loadView method in TestsViewController.m - 

TestView *tests = [[TestView alloc] initWithFrame:frame andObjects:replies];
tests.parent = self;

-(void)loadView
{
  self.view= [[TestView alloc] initWithFrame:frame andObjects:replies];
}

Hope this help !
