How can I test an App in Apple TV 3rd generation devices?

Hi, I am developing a Framework (static library) for iOS managing some AVPlayers features and stats and I want to test it in Apple TV 3rd gen. devices. How can I deploy my test App in an Apple TV 3rd gen device? Do I need an specific XCode version?

Thank you

Apple TV 3rd generation and prior do not run third party apps. Did you mean 4th gen?

You can't.


Only gen 4 devices, recently released, are supported for dev apps. In that case, use the current Xcode 7.1.1 & see: https://developer.apple.com/tvos/

Do you mean that you want to test the AirPlay functionality of your library? If that's the case, there's nothing special to do with Xcode.


Otherwise, Apple TV's which support tvOS are 4th generation devices and are physically noticably bigger than the first three generations of Apple TV.
