Usage

1 - add TestableMacro as a dependency
2 - import TestableMacro
3 - mark your class with the macro @Testable

import TestableMacro
@Testable
class YourClass {
  private var somePrivateVariable: Int = 0
  private func somePrivateFunction() { }
}

auto-generated code:

extension YourClass {
    #if DEBUG
    var testHooks: TestHooks {
        return TestHooks(target: self)
    }
    struct TestHooks {
        private var target: YourClass
        fileprivate init(target: YourClass) {
            self.target = target
        }
        var somePrivateVariable: Int {
          get { return target.someVariable }
          set { target.someVariable = newValue }
        }
        func somePrivateFunction() {
          target.someFunction()
        }
    }
    #endif
}

Testing private properties & methods

@testable import YourModule
import XCTest

class YourTests: XCTestCase {
  let sut: YourClass

  func testSomePrivateFunction() {
    sut.testHooks.somePrivateFunction()
    // make a assetion
  }
}
