Additional setup: The cuckoo installation process requires adding a new run script into your test target build phases. Include the absolute path to each file and the framework that will generate mocks in this script. Import the generated file into the project once, and then re-generate it to keep it up to date. Class name starts from the word ‘Mock’ — each test double you can use as mock, stub, or spy.
