I have an app I want to update of other reasons than change of of iOS, and the work to redesign it for iOS7 is rather big and also not looking good with iOS7. If I build it with SDK6 using Xcode 4, how do I test it on a device running iOS7. Or do I have to see how it behaves when it is coming up at App Store. I have also Xcode 5 but with this I can not build it with SDK6, can I? I can see the result in the iOS6 simulator after a SDK7 build but since the app does not look good with that I do not want to update it that way. The look is ok on a iOS7 device I know, but how to test it ?? And my devices running iOS7 are not compatible with Xcode 4.

The best way for you is to install Xcode 5 keeping Xcode 4 on your Mac. For that, copy past your current Xcode 4 in a folder named Xcode4 on your application folder and renamed Xcode.app to Xcode4.app. After that, update your Xcode to Xcode 5 and create a symbolic link to have the iOS 6 SDK on Xcode 5.

Have a look here, where I explain how to make this symbolic link.
