Script-Based Unit Tests

Write and run test scripts

Write script-based tests to check that the outputs of MATLAB®scripts, functions, or classes are as you expect. For example, you can use theassertfunction to test for actual output values that match expected values. Or you can test that the output variables have the correct size and type. To run your test scripts use theruntestsfunction.
