IBOutelt found nil when UICollectionViewCell is load - ios

Question

I am studying how to create a simple app without storyboard and I have a problem:
I created a XIB called HomeViewController, inside it has a UICollectioView and made the registration of the cell in the viewDidLoad().
after that, I created a cell called HomeCollectionViewCell, put the identifier as "cell", in the cell it has a UILabelOutlet, that is referenced in the .swift file.
After setting the delegate and the datasource, it has the mandatory methods of the datasource, when making the cell configuration and calling the label by setting any text it returns nil. I don't know why this is happening, I've seen several videos on YouTube and none has solved the problem. Can anybody help me?
HomeViewController
class HomeViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
var info = ["Image"]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
collectionView.register(HomeCollectionViewCell.self, forCellWithReuseIdentifier:
"cell")
collectionView.delegate = self
collectionView.dataSource = self
}
}
extension HomeViewController: UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection
section: Int) -> Int {
return info.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath:
IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "cell", for:
indexPath) as? HomeCollectionViewCell
cell?.teste.text = "test"
return cell!
}
}
HomeCollectionViewCell
class HomeCollectionViewCell: UICollectionViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var teste: UILabel!
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
}
}

That's because you have to register cell's nib not just class:
collectionView.register(UINib(nibName: "HomeCollectionViewCell", bundle: nil), forCellWithReuseIdentifier: "cell")
