# SSLTestDemo
A simple sample to show a problem with Unit Tests on the Command line using SSL
## Goal
Our goal is to execute our Unit Tests within a Continuous Integration environment ([Jenkins](http://jenkins-ci.org "Jenkins CI"))
(I believe it is essential for every question to state what exactly one is trying to achieve. Maybe the problem can actually be solved a very different way)
## Problem resolved so far
Running tests from the command line sounds pretty straighforward, but
xcodebuild -sdk iphonesimulator ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO clean test
results in an ugly error:
unsupported build action 'test'
So I searched the web and found this article on [Running OCUnit Tests from Command Line](http://www.raingrove.com/2012/03/28/running-ocunit-and-specta-tests-from-command-line.html "Running OCUnit Tests from Command Line").
I followed all the steps, and I can run my tests from the command line like this:
xcodebuild -scheme CITests -sdk iphonesimulator TEST_AFTER_BUILD=YES ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO clean build
## Remaining Problem
However, now any NSURLConnection to an SSL Server will fail, because "The certificate for this server is invalid.". I have heared about keychain issues when running tests from the command line, but can this be true? Any SSL connection is refused?
## To Reproduce
Get the sample at https://github.com/below/SSLTestDemo. Open it up, and run the sample test using Xcode's own **Test ⌘U** command. The test should succeed.
Now run the test on the command line:
xcodebuild -scheme CITests -sdk iphonesimulator TEST_AFTER_BUILD=YES ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=NO clean build
The test fails due to the "The certificate for this server is invalid." error.
## Any Pointers?
* Am I doing it wrong?
* Is this a genuine bug?
* If so, are there workaroungs?
Any input is appreciated!
