assert_checkerror

Check that an command raises the expected error.

Syntax

• assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message)

• r = assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message)

• [r, msg] = assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message)

• assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message, expected_error_identifier)

• r = assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message, expected_error_identifier)

• [r, msg] = assert_checkerror(command, expected_error_message, expected_error_identifier)

Input argument

• command - a string value

• expected_error_message - a string, the expected error message.

• expected_error_identifier - a string, the expected error identifier.

Output argument

• res - a logical value

• msg - a string value, the error message. If res == true, then errormsg == ''. If res == false, then msg contains the error message.

Description

If the command does not raise the expected error message, then assert_checkerror raises an error.
