sltest.testmanager.SpecifiedFault Class

Namespace: sltest.testmanager

Create or modify faults added to fault sets in tests

Since R2024a

Description

Objects of the sltest.testmanager.SpecifiedFault class are faults added to fault sets in test cases. You must have Simulink^® Test™ to use this class.

The sltest.testmanager.SpecifiedFault class is a handle class.

Class Attributes

HandleCompatible

true

For information on class attributes, see Class Attributes.

Creation

To create sltest.testmanager.SpecifiedFault objects:

• Use the addSpecifiedFault method.

• Create a fault set interactively in a test case, then get the associated sltest.testmanager.SpecifiedFault object by using the getSpecifiedFaults function.

Properties

FaultName — Fault name

string scalar | character vector

Fault name, specified as a string scalar or a character vector. You can change the name of this fault to another fault on the same model element.

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	public
Dependent	true
NonCopyable	true

Data Types: string | char

IsActive — Whether fault can be injected

true or 1 (default) | false or 0

Whether the fault can be injected during test simulation, specified as a numeric or logical 1 (true) or 0 (false). You can only activate one fault on each model element.

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	public
Dependent	true
NonCopyable	true

Data Types: logical

ModelElement — Path of model element

character vector

Path of the model element, returned as a character vector. In Simulink models, this argument is the path to a block output or input port. In Simscape™ blocks, this argument is the path to a fault-capable model subelement. In System Composer™ models, this argument is the path to a component output or input port.

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	protected
Dependent	true
NonCopyable	true

Data Types: char

Trigger — Fault trigger type and value

character vector

Fault trigger type and value, returned as a character vector. Faults can have these triggers:

Trigger type	Description
Always On	The fault is injected at the start of simulation.
Timed	The fault is injected when the simulation reaches a specified simulation time. The value is a real scalar.
Conditional	The fault is injected when the specified conditional is true. See Create and Manage Conditionals.
Manual	You control the injection status in the Fault Dashboard pane. See Manually Trigger Faults in Models. The Simulink Test Manager uses the assigned status in the model, and you cannot change it while running tests.
Behavioral	The fault injects as a result of a fault parameter value during simulation. You can specify this trigger type only for faults on Simscape blocks.

The property displays the trigger type, followed by a colon, a space, and the trigger value.

For more information, see Trigger type.

Example: 'Timed: 5' indicates that the fault has a timed trigger of five seconds.

Attributes:

SetAccess	protected
Dependent	true
NonCopyable	true

Examples

Add Fault to New Fault Set in Test Case

Suppose you have a test file named myTestFile that contains one test case. The test uses myModel as the model under test, and the model contains a fault named myFault on the output port of a Sine Wave block. Create a test case and fault set, and add the fault to the fault set.

tf = sltest.testmanager.TestFile("myTestFile.mldatx");
ts = sltest.testmanager.TestSuite(tf,"myTestSuite");
tc = sltest.testmanager.TestCase(ts,"simulation","myTestCase");
faultSet = addFaultSet(tc);
sltest.testmanager.refreshFaults("myModel")
testFault = addSpecifiedFault(faultSet,...
  "myModel/Sine Wave/Outport/1","myFault")
