    • On the main menu, choose Code | Generate.

    • Right click the editor and choose Generate on the context menu.

    • Press ⌘N

  3. In the Generate menu that appears, select the desired construct. Important note: When generating tests for fixtures, once you have specify a fixture name in the created template, AppCode automatically converts the inserted macro to one of the following types:
    • TEST_F()

    • TEST_P()

    • TYPED_TEST()

    • TYPED_TEST_P()
