Segmentation fault 11 when code coverage is turned on in Swift

While I am running unit tests with XCTest in Swift, they run fine when code coverage is turned off. However once I try to enable code coverage, I have a failed build/test with 4 classes giving the following error message: Command failed due to signal: Segmentation fault: 11.

In my case, i was building through the cli running the xcodebuild command with Release configuration and no provitionings configured, when i switched to Debug config build and tests worked just fine

See this bug report on similar issue. https://bugs.swift.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/SR-1825

I got the same error when implementing a protocol which required an optional variable that I implemented as a lazy var.

Here is what worked for me (as all the other suggestions did not work in my case). I was getting a segmentation fault 11 on a particular Swift class when trying to run unit tests with code coverage turned ON. It turns out that we had a ternary expression on a class's property like so:

let cellBorder : CGFloat = MyHelperClass.isIPad() ? 10.0 : 6.0

Making it a lazy var fixed the problem:

lazy var cellBorder : CGFloat = MyHelperClass.isIPad() ? 10.0 : 6.0

To be clear, the code compiled and worked fine until we tried turning on code coverage. I also found this Open Radar and this guy's post that outlined the solution. Appears to be an Apple bug.

Without code, build settings, etc. it's hard to say for sure but one thing you should check is to make sure that you are using a @testable import flag in your unit test classes.

For instance with a project named MyApp at the top of your unit test class you would include with the following import @testable import MyApp.

You also want to check to ensure that you've followed the process for enabling coverage all the way through. That information is documented on Apple's developer portal:
