HUGE TIP for xcode 4 users. This tutorial WILL NOT work for you as written. Here is how to fix.

1. Go into Xcode-> Preferences -> Location ->Build Location and select "Place build products in locations specified by targets. this makes it work like XCode 3 and this tutorial works!

OR

2. Save your testerfile to this directory:

/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/De­veloper/Xcode/DerivedData/NAME­OFYOURPROJECT/Build/Products/D­ebug

Xcode 4 moved the build directory here for some reason I don't know.

Or u can just write a whole path, in my case

NSString *testerf = @"/Users/bane/Desktop/myCode/w­orkingWithFiles/workingWithFil­es/testerfile.txt";

press right click on ur tester file, and u can see your files whole path on file info

for those who cant find the folder even going to get info and find it. go to Xcode->Preferences->location click the small arrow to get to DerievedData, you can favourite it so you dont need to find in future! :D

Note: To make the tutorial work in Xcode 4.0, I had to place the "testerfile" into the Developer folder of my Library. The best way to find where to place the "testerfile" is to right-click the "Testing" file in the "Products" folder of your project and select "Show in Finder".
