Xcode: Template doesn't show

I have tried to create an Xcode template, it's located at this path:

/Users/rob/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates/TestTemplate.xctemplate

In this folder: 

___FILEBASENAME___.swift

I checked the path in Xcode Preferences > Locations:

enter image description here

But when I try to create a new file in Xcode, this template doesn't appear. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Xcode has both project and file templates. You need to create a File Templates folder inside the Templates folder to store your file templates. You should also create a group folder inside the File Templates folder to store your file templates so there's a section for the templates in the New File Assistant.

/Users/rob/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates/File Templates/My Templates/TestTemplate.xctemplate

Where My Templates is the name of the group holding the file template. You can name the group anything you want.
