I try to do unit test for an ES system extension's code using Unit Testing Bundle.

the code tries to get NSEndpointSecurityMachServiceName in info.plist by [bundle objectForInfoDictionaryKey:] but failed.

I have added NSEndpointSecurityMachService to info.plist of Test Bundle, and I did check info.plist file in bundle, NSEndpointSecurityMachServiceName was listed there.

Unit test bundles are loaded and run by a running process. This is either your app or a Xcode-specific runner, depending on the Test Host build setting. If you call +mainBundle, that’s the bundle you get.

So, if you add a property to your test bundle’s Info.plist, you need to get a reference to it rather than the main bundle. The canonical way to da that is to call +bundleForClass: on a class that’s in your unit test bundle.
