Ajay Puvvala is my friend and colleague at the MathWorks. He also led the development of the TestTags feature we spoke about last post.Ajay, as per usual, made a great comment after last week's... read more >>

I have found that with any reasonably sized software project, sooner or later organization becomes important. As additional features and capabilities are introduced into a toolbox it becomes... read more >>

I once faced a question from a friend who was perusing MATLAB documentation while implementing a test suite for some production software and found an example test which used the addTeardown method... read more >>

OK, so remember how we just went through the exercise (not just once, but twice) of how you can write a function to help parallelize your test runs? Well all of that still applies if you have not yet upgraded to MATLAB R2015a. However, if you do have R2015a you now get this out of the box because the TestRunner now has a runInParallel method!... read more >>

Last time we showed that using a simple parfor loop we could reduce the runtime of a representative test suite from 6 to 7 minutes (when run serially) down to a minute and a half. However, we still faced some problems:... read more >>
