Hi. Please help me to build ipa file.  
I’m trying to build ipa and distribute it with fastlane. Please check my .yml file:

environment:  
GYM\_CODE\_SIGNING\_IDENTITY: ""  
xcode:  
version: 8.2  
dependencies:  
cache\_directories:  
- ~/.cocoapods  
pre:  
- brew update  
override:  
- sudo gem install cocoapods  
- sudo gem install fastlane  
- sudo gem install xcpretty  
deployment:  
beta:  
branch: feature/ci  
commands:

- fastlane beta  
test:  
override:  
- ls -la  
- echo test

I have linking issue:  
❌ ld: file is universal (4 slices) but does not contain a(n) armv7 slice: /Users/distiller/goodco-ios-native/GoodCo/Pods/NearbyMessages/Libraries/libGNSMessages.a file ‘/Users/distiller/goodco-ios-native/GoodCo/Pods/NearbyMessages/Libraries/libGNSMessages.a’ for architecture armv7

Also please help me with cocoapods instalation. Is it correct to install cocoapods in test section?
