Tag Unit Tests

You can use test tags to group tests into categories and then run tests with specified tags.

Typical test tags identify a particular feature or describe the type of test.

Tag Tests

To define test tags, use a cell array of meaningful character vectors or a string array. For

example, TestTags = {'Unit'} or TestTags = ["Unit","FeatureA"].

• To tag individual tests, use the TestTags method attribute.


• To tag all the tests within a class, use the TestTags class attribute. If you use the
  TestTags class attribute in a superclass, tests in the subclasses inherit the tags.

This sample test class, ExampleTagTest, uses the TestTags method attribute to tag

individual tests.

classdef ExampleTagTest < matlab.unittest.TestCase

methods (Test)

function testA (testCase)

% test code

end

end

methods (Test, TestTags = {'Unit'})

function testB (testCase)

% test code

end

function testC (testCase)

% test code

end

end

methods (Test, TestTags = {'Unit','FeatureA'})

function testD (testCase)

% test code

end

end

methods (Test, TestTags = {'System','FeatureA'})

function testE (testCase)

% test code

end

end

end
