I'm trying to perform some unit test over my application, but I
don't know how to test a core data model, I needed to test it at
the beginning, when I create a manager object model, when I start a
model, and when I perform a fetch, but I cannot find any
information on how to do it. I'm using the ocunit that provide me
xcode, and I follow some samples of how to create a test case set,
but I don't know how to continue.
If anybody can lead me on how to continue, I'll be thankful
What exactly is it that you'd like to test? It's not clear to me
from the above. Are you trying to do test-driven development of your
data model, or are you trying to test that your managed object
classes behave as you expect?
I've written some entries on my blog about some ways to go about
writing Core Data tests, as well as tests for Cocoa user interfaces
and for declarative, connection-oriented functionality in general.
Here are some links:

Cocoa is very amenable to unit testing and test-driven development.
You just need to determine the right way to approach it for what it
is that you want to test.
