Hi, I have a framework, that I recently ported to xcframework. The framework is written in swift and have both Objective C & Swift Test App. Prior to migration, I was able to debug swift framework while running swift test app. But after moving to xcframework breakpoints are no more effective & I am unable to test my framework code.

Am I missing something?

As XCFrameworks are pre-compiled outside of the app, any existing source code breakpoints in the framework code aren't going to work, since the framework source wasn't compiled when you built the app. You can still use symbolic breakpoints to break whenever the app calls a function symbol in your XCFramework, but the debugging experience will be different that you're likely expecting.
