Testing

Generate, structure, and run MATLAB unit tests using the matlab.unittest framework. Covers class-based tests, parameterized testing, fixtures, mocking, coverage analysis, CI/CD integration, and app testing via MCP.

When to Use

• User asks to write tests for a MATLAB function or class
• User wants to run an existing test suite
• User needs coverage analysis or CI/CD configuration
• Test-driven development — writing tests before implementation
• Testing App Designer apps with programmatic gestures (see reference/app-testing-guidance.md)

When NOT to Use

• Testing Simulink models — use Simulink test skills
• Performance benchmarking — use profiling workflows
