To unit test an XML parsing method, I would like keep a dummy XML

Put the file into the Resources folder, and add it to the test
target. This insures that the file gets copied into the .app during
the build. In the test, you do this:
NSString *filename = [[NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]]
pathForResource:@"TestXML1" ofType:@"xml"];
Now, having said that, I'll also say that you do not need to read in
XML files to test an XML parser, and that in general, it's a bad idea
for tests to rely on files. My ID3 parser has 100% test coverage, and
doesn't require a single file.
