Xcode 4 cocoa application help

I just upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard, and I'm building a Cocoa application for Mac with Xcode 4. I'm done with the application, but I can't find it in my Finder. I'm used to being able to look under [project name]=>build=>[app name] (so it would be like this for an app called calculator: calculator => build => calculator).

However, I can't find that folder in my project name. Where can I find this application? I don't want to put it

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), Model of 2008

All of the build stuff has been regrouped and is now in your user's Library folder in ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData - you can also right-click on the built application under the Products group and choose "Show in Finder".

I built a test app TestMacApp. Xcode put the .app down in my Library folder. This is my Library folder, not the top-level Library folder. I used Finder > Go > Go to Folder to show my Library folder because it is hidden.
