Namespace: sltest.testmanager

Set model variable override

Syntax

setVariable(obj,'Name',varName,'Value',value)
setVariable(obj,'Name',varName,,'Value',value,'Source',srcName,'SimulationIndex',simIndex)


Description

setVariable(obj,'Name',varName,'Value',value) sets a model variable override for the test iteration. Specify the sltest.testmanager.TestIteration object, and then specify the variable name, and override value. The method overrides the variable in the test iteration and does not permanently change the model variable.

setVariable(obj,'Name',varName,,'Value',value,'Source',srcName,'SimulationIndex',simIndex) specifies the optional source and simulation index values for the variable, which default to 1 and '', respectively.

Input Arguments

obj — Test iteration object

object

The test iteration you want to apply the override to, specified as a sltest.testmanager.TestIteration object.

varName — Variable name

character vector

Name of the variable you want to override, specified as a character vector.

value — Override value

numeric | logical | enum | struct

Value of the variable to override.

srcName — Variable source

'' (default) | 'base workspace' | 'model workspace' | data dictionary name | workspace name | MAT file name | model element paths

The source of the variable to override, specified as a character vector. For non-real-time test cases, the possible sources can be '', 'base workspace', 'model workspace', name of a data dictionary, such as 'data.sldd', model workspace name, or MAT file name.

To override a variable that is in a referenced model in a test harness, specify the source as the referenced model name and not as the path that includes the test harness name. For example, use 'Source','RefModelName' instead of 'Source','TestHarnessName/RefModelName'.

For real-time test cases, the possible sources are model element paths or empty character vectors. If a block parameter value is being overridden in a test iteration, use the full block path as the variable source. If variables are used for one or more block parameters, use an empty character vector as the source name. An empty vector is used because in the real-time application, the variable is a global variable, so you do not need to specify its source.

Example: 'Source','yourMatFile.mat'

Example: 'Source','MyRefModel'

simIndex — Equivalence test simulation index

1 (default) | 2

Simulation index of an equivalence test case, specified as 1 or 2, where 1 is Simulation 1 and 2 is Simulation 2.

Example: 'SimulationIndex',2

Examples

Set Variable in Base Workspace

setVariable(obj,'Name','g','Source','base workspace','Value',33);
