Adding a Swift Package dependency in Xcode
WHAT IT TESTS: basic SPM workflow knowledge. OUTLINE: add via File menu, paste the repo URL, choose a version rule like up-to-next-major, link the product to your target.
WHAT IT TESTS: familiarity with the everyday SPM integration flow inside Xcode. ANSWER OUTLINE: open File then Add Package Dependencies, paste the Git repository URL, pick a dependency rule such as Up to Next Major Version, exact version, or branch, resolve, then choose which library product to add to which target so it links. Xcode records this in the project and resolves a Package.resolved lockfile. RED FLAG: describing CocoaPods or Carthage steps, or always pinning to a moving branch instead of a stable semantic version range.
