What happen if you don't have a iPhone 6s for testing is there away i can test on hardware or do i need someone that has a iPhone or is there anyone welling to help me out?My other for test fight how do you find beta tester for that?My prob i don't have a iPhone right now it going to take a few mouths to save up for one.:)
 
You can test in the simulator in Xcode.

You can invite people on test flight and have them test it. To find people, well you can start with friends and family. But really, the best place to find beta tester is the same place you will find users for your app. So who is your apps ideal user? How do you plan on finding them when your app is finished? The same applies to your beta.

If you have a hard time finding beta testers, then you're probably making an app that doesn't have much demand.

Testing on the simulator same as the iPhone?I have some family that has iPad and iPhone and some mac not not to many that do.I was thinking of make a irc chat app or Coupon Shopper app.I not sure how i going to plan on finding them when the app is done.
 
The simulator is pretty good, but not perfect. You should always test on a real device, but you'd be surprised on how much you can do with the simulator. You can probably make the entire app using only the simulator, then go back and test when you're all done.

As for finding people, a good place to start would be this site. Good amount of early adopters here who don't mind trying new things. Try posting and asking if users want to try your app.
