platform of the target `fubarTests` (iOS 4.3) is not compatible with `Kiwi (2.2.1)` which has a minimum requirement of iOS 5.0

Question

I can't seem to get past this error and don't know why. I'm running xcode 4.6.3 The project's ios deployment target says iOS 6.1 the base sdk is 6.1

My Podfile is:

# Podfile
platform :ios  
target :fubarTests, :exclusive => true do 
 pod 'Kiwi' 
end 

and when I try to run pod install from the command line I get the error about the target being iOS 4.3.

Why does it think my target is 4.3 and how can I change it?

Answer 1

You need to specify

platform :ios, '6.1'

Answer 2

It's no longer necessary to specify the platform and version. For me I just deleted the line beginning platform and everything started working.
