Xcode Stopped Recognizing Global Variables - Swift - xcode

Question

I've been working on an app for over a month and have many variables defined at the top of the Swift document that came with my tabbed interface template in XCODE. I've declared various UIColors to be used globally and have made a few classes where I draw a few different icon shapes. All of a sudden today Xcode is throwing up red errors of "Use of unresolved identifier [one of my UIColor variabls]" for all of my colors used throughout my drawing classes. I've tried to clean the project and restart Xcode Any idea what could be going on?
Here are my global variables:
import Foundation
import UIKit
import QuartzCore
//----Global Variables----
var timerMode = "start"
var arrowButtonTapped = false
var timerButtonTouched = false
var currentView = "brew it"
//--------My Colors -----------
let colorGreen = UIColor(red: 0.310, green: 0.725, blue: 0.624, alpha: 1.000)
let colorLightGreen = UIColor(red: 211/255, green: 217/255, blue: 195/255, alpha: 100)
var colorRed = UIColor(red: 241/255, green: 93/255, blue: 79/255, alpha: 100)
let colorDarkBlue = UIColor(red: 27/255, green: 29/255, blue: 38/255, alpha: 1.0)
let colorOrange = UIColor(red: 241/255, green: 162/255, blue: 128/255, alpha: 1.0)
let colorTransparent = UIColor(red: 241/255, green: 162/255, blue: 128/255, alpha: 0.0)
//----Countdown times----
var countTime : NSTimeInterval = 6
var halfCountTime : NSTimeInterval = countTime * 0.5
var okCountTime : NSTimeInterval = 2

}

I'm not sure if my classes are being declared correctly. I made a group called "Vectors" where I planned to make a separate class for each drawing. I'm not sure if i'm supposed to select file -> new -> file and select a Cocoa Touch Class, or if i can just create a blank Swift file and write out my class code from scratch there. This is the option I was trying to figure out when my globial variables "went bad".
What's more strange is that the app compiles just fine in the simulator, my colors appear correctly for the classes applied to my icons that use the global color variables. But Xcode is throwing a fit so my #IBDesignables won't compile in storyboard and I have a bunch of red errors.
UPDATE
Somewhere along the way here, the Swift file that I posted in my question was removed from my projects "tests" target membership. The little checkbox was unchecked. I have no idea how I could have done this, but everything was back to normal until i got an xcode error whiting out all of my text and saying that editing is currently disabled. I ended up removing all of my swift files from "tests" (unchecking the "tests" target membership for all of the files"), then creating a new Objective C file which prompted Xcode to ask me to configure a new bridging header I transferred my old bridging header code to the new file. This seems to have fixed the problem. I'm not submitting this an an answer because I don't know what the actual problem was.
