`Undefined symbol: _OBJC_CLASS_$_DDLog` when trying to run unit tests with Simulator target

On Xcode 13.4.1, when specifically trying to run unit tests, I get an error Undefined symbol: _OBJC_CLASS_$_DDLog. After clicking on it in the Issue navigator, a longer error message says

Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:

  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_DDLog", referenced from:

      objc-class-ref in

How might I fix this? I tried running both Xcode and the Simulator in Rosetta, but I get the same error message but for x86.

I tried running both Xcode and the Simulator in Rosetta

Do not run Xcode or the simulator under Rosetta. That’s an unsupported configuration and, while it might yield an short-term results, it will definitely cause you problems in the long term.

This error suggests that you’ve failed to link with a specific library, one that contains the DDLog class. I recommend that you investigate where that class is expected to be coming from and add it to the libraries list for the target that’s missing it.
