Using Signal Logging for Test Harness to Matlab Workspace

I am using a simple script to run a test case via a test harness within Matlab

%% Clear Workspace

clc

close all

clear

%% Run Test Cas(es)

out = runtests(Name='my test case');

logsouttest = out.logsout;

This errors on line 9

The 'runtests' command does not export like the 'sim' command. But I can't use the 'sim' command since I am using a test harness and need to utilize the 'runtests' command.

I know there has to be a way to get the 'logsout' data, I just cannot figure out the syntax.

Overall goal is to get the logged signal data in the test harness into the Matlab workspace

help matlab.unittest.TestResult

  TestResult - Result of running a test suite
 
    The matlab.unittest.TestResult class holds the information describing
    the result of running a test suite using the matlab.unittest.TestRunner.
    It contains information describing whether the test passed, failed,
    or ran to completion as well as the duration of the tests.
 
    TestResult arrays are created and returned by the test runner, and are
    of the same size as the suite which was run.
 
    TestResult properties:
        Name       - The name of the TestSuite for this result
        Passed     - Logical value showing if the test passed
        Failed     - Logical value showing if the test failed
        Incomplete - Logical value showing if test did not run to completion
        Duration   - Time elapsed running test
        Details    - Structure containing custom data for this result
 
    TestResult methods:
        table         - Convert TestResult object to table
        assertSuccess - Assert test session runs without failure
 
    Examples:
 
        >> import matlab.unittest.TestSuite;
        >> % Result display method provides a summary of the results
        >> suite = TestSuite.fromClass(?SomeTestClass)
        >> results = run(suite)
 
        results =
 
          1x16 TestResult array with properties:
 
            Name
            Passed
            Failed
            Incomplete
            Duration
            Details
 
          Totals:
            12 Passed, 4 Failed (rerun), 0 Incomplete.
            5.5091 seconds testing time.
        >>

            Failed
            Incomplete
            Duration
            Details
 
          Test Suite Summary:
            0 Passed, 4 Failed (rerun), 0 Incomplete.
            1.2894 seconds testing time.

            Failed
            Incomplete
            Duration
            Details
 
          Test Suite Summary:
            4 Passed, 0 Failed, 0 Incomplete.
            1.1607 seconds testing time.

that gets me the results of the test (e.g. pass or fail) but not the logged signals that are generated during the test

I want to get the signals that are generated (e.g. position, velocity, acceleration) over time

To clarify, I want the "Sim Outputs" in my Matlab workspace
