Cannot produce executable target for command line tool in xcode 4.3

Hello, 

       I'm trying to learn how to use xcode, and I can't even get the
simplest thing to work. I'm running with a clean "out of the box" install.
The software in question is

    Machine        : MacBook Pro 
    OS version lion: 10.7.4
    Xcode          : 4.3.3 

My problem is that I have a command line program that works *within* xcode
when I hit the run button, but does not create an executable that I can run
*outside* xcode.

I am totally flummexed. Here's what I did.


1) File -> New -> Project
   selected "Command Line Tool"
   name: test1
   Type: foundation
   Use automatic Reference Counting is ticked

2) This creates main.m

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

int main(int argc, const char * argv[])
{

    @autoreleasepool {
        
        // insert code here...
        NSLog(@"Hello, World!");
        
    }
    return 0;
}

3) Press the run button

   It says build succeed and runs correctly

Now comes my problem - I want to run the program *outside*
xcode from a terminal, bit no executable has been produced.
Or if it has I can't find it.

The Targets->Build Settings -> Deployment tab
says the installation directory is /usr/local/bin
so I had expected an executable called test1 to be 
in the file /usr/local/bin/test1
