matlab.uitest.unlock

Unlock figure locked by app testing framework

Syntax

matlab.uitest.unlock(fig)

Description

matlab.uitest.unlock(fig) unlocks a figure that the app testing framework locked so that you can interact with the figure components.

Examples

Unlock Figure

Create a class-based unit test that derives from matlab.uitest.TestCase and contains a keyboard statement.

classdef SimpleUITest < matlab.uitest.TestCase
    methods (Test)
        function test1(testCase)
            fig = uifigure;
            testCase.addTeardown(@delete,fig)
            button = uibutton(fig);
            keyboard;
        end
    end
end

Run the test. MATLAB^® enters debug mode at the keyboard command. The figure is locked and you cannot interactively press the button.

runtests("SimpleUITest")

While in debug mode, unlock the figure. You can interact with the button.

K>> matlab.uitest.unlock(fig);

Continue execution of the test. The test completes and closes the figure during teardown.

K>> dbcont
