Simulink Test User’s Guide

Model-based design teams rely on systematic verification to catch issues before code goes into production. The official MathWorks documentation for Simulink Test is built to support that workflow, from creating reusable test harnesses to analyzing coverage and automating test execution.

What This Guide Covers

The R2020b edition of the Simulink Test User’s Guide walks through the toolset used to verify and validate Simulink models, generated code, and integrated systems. Readers can expect practical guidance on test strategies, requirements traceability, harness design, sequence authoring, assessment logic, and reporting.

Key Workflows

• Building and managing test harnesses for top-level models and components
• Creating test sequences and assessments with logical and temporal conditions
• Running software- and processor-in-the-loop verification
• Comparing simulation output to baselines or equivalent simulations
• Collecting coverage and generating reports through the Test Manager

Who This Guide Is For

Engineers, developers, and test engineers working in the MATLAB and Simulink environment will find this guide useful as a workflow reference and practical source of examples. It assumes familiarity with Simulink and focuses on applying Simulink Test to structured verification tasks.
