if anyone on this list is actively using either of the tools as part of their
regular workfow?

Both seem to be good tools. I chose ObjcUnit because its approach of using a separate target seemed to make it easier to keep test code separate and to only run the tests when I want to. OCUnit's integration with the Project Builder error list is slick, but I found that I preferred the JUnit-style text output. Also, OCUnit's macros conflicted with Objective-C++ (not sure whether that's still the case), which I was using at the time.

ObjcUnit also has some pre-build mock classes, which you may find useful. My main complaint about it is that the JUnit-style methods for assertion are very verbose. I wrapped them in macros that stuff __FILE__ and __LINE__ into the message string so that I can easily figure out which assertion failed.
