Syntax
Description
verifySize([testCase](#bt00res-1%5Fsep%5Fmw%5F8d5e73c7-bacb-46a7-a1c1-f24af91e6c03),[actual](#mw%5Fc4c3cc41-6d7f-4804-8449-ac4c685aa531),[expectedSize](#mw%5F1e4e3bbf-60be-4dae-ba06-f022ea718e57))
verifies that actual
is a MATLABĀ® array with the expected size.

also associates the diagnostic information in diagnostic
with the qualification.
Input Arguments
Test case, specified as a matlab.unittest.qualifications.Verifiable
object. Because the matlab.unittest.TestCase class subclasses matlab.unittest.qualifications.Verifiable
and inherits its methods, testCase
is typically amatlab.unittest.TestCase
object.
Value to test, specified as an array of any data type.
Expected array size, specified as a row vector of nonnegative integers. Each element of expectedSize
represents the expected length of the corresponding dimension of actual.
Diagnostic information to display when the qualification passes or fails, specified as a string array, character array, function handle, or array of matlab.automation.diagnostics.Diagnostic objects.
Depending on the test runner configuration, the testing framework can display diagnostics when the qualification passes or fails. By default, the framework displays diagnostics only when the qualification fails. You can override the default behavior by customizing the test runner. For example, use a DiagnosticsOutputPlugin instance to display both failing and passing event diagnostics.
Example: "My Custom Diagnostic"
Example: @dir
Examples
Test if the actual value has the specified size.
Create a test case for interactive testing.
testCase = matlab.unittest.TestCase.forInteractiveUse;
Verify that the size of the row vector [1 3 5]
is [1 3]
.
verifySize(testCase,[1 3 5],[1 3])
Test the size of a 2-by-5-by-3 array.
verifySize(testCase,rand(2,5,3),[2 5 3])
Test if the size of a 2-by-2 matrix is [4 1]
. The test fails.
verifySize(testCase,eye(2),[4 1],"Value must be a 4-by-1 vector.")
Verification failed. ---------------- Test Diagnostic: ---------------- Value must be a 4-by-1 vector. --------------------- Framework Diagnostic: --------------------- verifySize failed. --> The value had an incorrect size.
Actual Size:
2 2
Expected Size:
4 1
Actual Value:
1 0
0 1

Test the size of a cell array of character vectors.
actual = {'Mercury','Gemini','Apollo'}; verifySize(testCase,actual,[1 3])
Tips
verifySize
is a convenience method. For example,verifySize(testCase,actual,expectedSize)
is functionally equivalent to the following code.
import matlab.unittest.constraints.HasSize
testCase.verifyThat(actual,HasSize(expectedSize))- Use verification qualifications to produce and record failures without throwing an exception. Because verifications do not throw exceptions, all test content runs to completion even when verification failures occur. Typically, verifications are the primary qualification for a unit test because they typically do not require an early exit from the test. Use other qualification types to test for violation of preconditions or incorrect test setup:
- Use assumption qualifications to ensure that the test environment meets preconditions that otherwise do not result in a test failure. Assumption failures result in filtered tests, and the testing framework marks the tests as
Incomplete
. For more information, see matlab.unittest.qualifications.Assumable. - Use assertion qualifications when the failure condition invalidates the remainder of the current test content but does not prevent proper execution of subsequent tests. A failure at the assertion point renders the current test as
Failed
andIncomplete
. For more information, see matlab.unittest.qualifications.Assertable. - Use fatal assertion qualifications to abort the test session upon failure. These qualifications are useful when the failure is so fundamental that continuing testing does not make sense. Fatal assertion qualifications are also useful when fixture teardown does not restore the environment state correctly, and aborting testing and starting a fresh session is preferable. For more information, see matlab.unittest.qualifications.FatalAssertable.
- Use assumption qualifications to ensure that the test environment meets preconditions that otherwise do not result in a test failure. Assumption failures result in filtered tests, and the testing framework marks the tests as
