matlab.unittest.selectors.HasName Class

Namespace: matlab.unittest.selectors

Select TestSuite array elements by name

Description

The matlab.unittest.selectors.HasName class provides a selector for filtering a test suite based on test names.

For a given test file, the name of a test uniquely identifies the smallest runnable portion of the test content. The test name includes the namespace name, filename (excluding the extension), procedure name, and information about parameterization.

Creation

Description

selector = matlab.unittest.selectors.HasName(name) creates a selector that selects TestSuite array elements whose name matches the specified value.

example

Input Arguments

expand all

Name of the test, specified as a string scalar, character vector, or matlab.unittest.constraints.Constraint object. Test selection by name is subject to these conditions:

  • If you specify a string scalar or character vector, the name of the test must be the same as the specified value.

  • If you specify a constraint, the name of the test must satisfy the constraint.

This argument sets the Constraint property.

Properties

expand all

Condition that the test name must satisfy for the test to be included in the filtered test suite, returned as a matlab.unittest.constraints.Constraint object.

This property is set by the name input argument:

  • If you specify a string scalar or character vector, the testing framework sets the property to the IsEqualTo constraint with the expected value as the specified test name.

  • If you specify a constraint, the testing framework sets the property to the constraint.

Create filtered test suites by selecting tests using the HasName class.

In a file named ZerosTest.m in your current folder, create the ZerosTest class, which tests the zeros function.

classdef ZerosTest < matlab.unittest.TestCase
    properties (TestParameter)
        type = {'single','double','uint16'};
        size = struct("s2d",[3 3],"s3d",[2 5 4]);
    end
    
    methods (Test)
        function testClass(testCase,size,type)
            testCase.verifyClass(zeros(size,type),type)
        end
        
        function testSize(testCase,size)
            testCase.verifySize(zeros(size),size)
        end
        
        function testDefaultClass(testCase)
            testCase.verifyClass(zeros,"double")
        end

        function testDefaultSize(testCase)
            testCase.verifySize(zeros,[1 1])
        end
        
        function testDefaultValue(testCase)
            testCase.verifyEqual(zeros,0)
        end
    end
end

Create a test suite from the ZerosTest class. Then, display the names of the TestSuite array elements. Each name includes the class name and the corresponding Test method name. For the parameterized tests, the names also include information about parameterization.

suite = testsuite("ZerosTest");
disp({suite.Name}')
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=single)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=double)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=uint16)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=single)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=double)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=uint16)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testSize(size=s2d)'             }
    {'ZerosTest/testSize(size=s3d)'             }
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultClass'               }
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultSize'                }
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultValue'               }

Select a specific test using its name. The filtered test suite has a single Test element.

suite1 = suite.selectIf(HasName("ZerosTest/testDefaultClass"));
disp({suite1.Name}')
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultClass'}

Select all the tests whose name contains "Size" or "Value".

suite2 = suite.selectIf(HasName(ContainsSubstring("Size")) | ...
    HasName(ContainsSubstring("Value")));
disp({suite2.Name}')
    {'ZerosTest/testSize(size=s2d)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testSize(size=s3d)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultSize'   }
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultValue'  }

Create a filtered test suite directly from the ZerosTest class by including only tests whose name contains the substring "Class".

suite3 = TestSuite.fromClass(?ZerosTest, ...
    HasName(ContainsSubstring("Class")));
disp({suite3.Name}')
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=single)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=double)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s2d,type=uint16)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=single)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=double)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testClass(size=s3d,type=uint16)'}
    {'ZerosTest/testDefaultClass'               }
