### MacOS

On MacOS, the log files are here:

***Macintosh HD/Users/\<username\>/Library/Logs/com.buildingforge.testfit/ ***

You can also paste the path below into Finder by hitting Shift, ⌘ + G:

***~/Library/Logs/com.buildingforge.testfit/***

If you cannot find the Library folder, that means the folder is hidden. To unhide the Library folder:

1. Open ***Finder***  (push Shift, ⌘ + H to go to your home directory)
2. ***Right-click*** \> Show View Options
3. ***Check*** "Show Library Folder"
4. Now you should see the "Library" folder in the Finder window. Open ***Library\>Logs\>com.buildingforge.testfit***

<iframe data-hsv-src="https://play.hubspotvideo.com/v/3486113/id/170100040704" referrerpolicy="origin" sandbox="allow-forms allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups" allow="autoplay; fullscreen;" style="position: absolute !important; width: 100% !important; height: 100% !important; left: 0; top: 0; border: 0 none; pointer-events: initial" title="HubSpot Video" loading="lazy" data-hsv-id="170100040704" data-hsv-style="" data-hsv-width="688" data-hsv-height="447" data-hsv-autoplay="false" data-hsv-loop="false" data-hsv-muted="false" data-hsv-hidden-controls="false" data-hsv-full-width="false"></iframe>
