Frank (iOS acceptance testing framework) can't find Alamofire

Question

I'm trying to set up Frank to test my iOS app. I've followed this tutorial but I get errors when I run frank build. The full output can be found here. The main error I get is:

import Alamofire

I have Alamofire installed using CocoaPods. Here's my Podfile:

# Uncomment this line to define a global platform for your project
# platform :ios, '6.0'
use_frameworks!
target 'Lunchr' do
    pod 'SwiftHTTP', :git => "https://github.com/daltoniam/SwiftHTTP.git", :tag => "0.9.1"
    pod 'SocketRocket'
    pod 'Socket.IO-Client-Swift', '~> 1.1'
    pod 'Alamofire', '~> 1.1'
    pod "SwiftyJSON", ">= 2.1.3"
end

target 'LunchrTests' do
    pod 'SwiftHTTP', :git => "https://github.com/daltoniam/SwiftHTTP.git", :tag => "0.9.1"

end

For what it's worth, when I run my app normally (through the iOS simulator) everything works flawlessly. How can I get Frank to recognize Alamofire?

I literally lol'd at the title of your question. It's a bit ... misleading, don't you think? I'm speaking for those who don't know what Frank is. — Vatsal Manot, Mar 27 '15 at 19:42
Didn't even realize. Now that you point it out I'm laughing too. I've updated the title to make my problem a bit more apparent ;) — Paymahn Moghadasian, Mar 27 '15 at 19:48
@PaymahnMoghadasian are you currently using frank with swift in your iOS app or objective-c? I'm actually trying to figure out the best cucumber/gherkin compliant framework to use in iOS.. and frank seems poorly maintained (only two merges in the last year.. not cool > https://github.com/TestingWithFrank/Frank/commits/master).. do you recommend it? — abbood, Apr 26 '16 at 08:09
the sample app in the tutorial you wrote @PaymahnMoghadasian has a deployment target of 3.0... :| — abbood, Apr 26 '16 at 08:20

This is probably because you're using CocoaPods and aren't supplying workspace and scheme arguments to frank build. This is a common problem people run into when trying to use Frank and CocoaPods.

If that's the case, your question is possibly a duplicate of

How do I install Frank when my project is using Cocoapods?

See this page for more details.
