Hi Sean,
What follows us just my opinion.
I think you're asking the wrong question. A more productive
question would be: Why do the unit tests take longer than 5 seconds
for all of them?
Why do I say this? Well, the phrase "unit tests" means different
things to different people. When in the context of "*Unit", it almost
always means "a set of tests that run very quickly so I can run them
every time I make any change at all to the code."
If you are using the phrase "unit tests" in a different way, then
you probably want to use a different style of writing and running unit
tests. This morning, Jeffrey Oleander described a framework for unit
tests that sounds a lot more like what you're thinking of. Something
like that sounds much more appropriate to the meaning I think you have
for "unit tests".
Does this help?

Hi all,
When one builds a unit test target, Xcode compiles, links, and runs
the
tests. Is it possible to omit running the tests?
Let's say the tests take 1 hour to run. While developing new tests, I
simply want to make sure things are compiling and linking.
Thanks,
