How to add background image and let it under UITableViewCell in swift?

This time the image of background still doesn't fit the scene,this is part of the code friendListCell is the@IBOutlet of the tableViewCell in this scene :

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let BackGroundImage:UIImageView = UIImageView(frame: self.friendListCell.bounds)//UIImageView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.width , self.view.frame.height))
    let image: UIImage = UIImage(named: "regularLogin.jpg")!

    BackGroundImage.image = image


    friendListCell.backgroundView = BackGroundImage

          fetchRequest.sortDescriptors = [sortDescriptor]



}


override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {

    switch(segue.identifier)
    {
        case .Some("functionSegue"):
            let functionViewController = segue.destinationViewController as! FunctionsViewController
            functionViewController.client = client!
    default:
        super.prepareForSegue(segue, sender: sender)
    }



}

//let AppConfig = TransmissionAgreement(first:"first")
var username:String?
var password:String?
var client:TCPClient?
let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest(entityName: "Friend")
let sortDescriptor = NSSortDescriptor(key: "name", ascending: true)
var result:[AnyObject]?
var managedObjectContext:NSManagedObjectContext?
@IBOutlet weak var friendListCell: UITableView!
}

First: you shouldn't add the background image in `cellForRowAtIndexPath', which means that it will be set every time a new cell is added. Set it in viewDidLoad instead.

And I would suggest that you calculate the size of the background imageview like this instead:

let backGroundImage = UIImageView(frame: self.tableView.bounds)

Remove the white background by setting the cell's background color to UIColor.clearColor():

cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()

You should set the tableView background image.

Try the following:

tableView.backgroundView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: "regularLogin.jpg"))

Also, if you want the cells to be transparent dont forget to set the cell color.

cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()
