Platform Configuration Variables

Platform configuration variables are used to inform you, for example, about the step size set in the Platform Configuration dialog. This information can be used in conditional expressions, for example, to run an assesslet, see Test Assessment - Assesslets. TPT distinguishes between general platform configuration variables, and platform-specific platform variables.

The autocompletion feature (shortcut Ctrl+Space) is available at all places where you can use a platform configuration variable.

General platform configuration variables

Variable name Format Description
tpt.platformconfigname string name of the platform configuration
tpt.stepsize double step size of the test execution as specified in the platform configuration
tpt.timeout double timeout of the test execution as specified in the platform configuration + ${tpt.stepsize}

 

Platform-specific configuration variables

ASCET Platform

Variable name Format Description
tpt.ascetplatform.sutprojectpath text path in ASCET to system under test module
tpt.ascetplatform.target text target in ASCET of system under test module
tpt.ascetplatform.testframeprojectname text name of generated TPT test frame
tpt.ascetplatform.ascetdatabasepath dir path to ASCET data base
tpt.ascetplatform.codegenerator text code generator in ASCET for Target
tpt.ascetplatform.sutmodulename text name of system under test module
tpt.ascetplatform.ascetversion text ASCET version name
tpt.ascetplatform.testdrivername text name of generated TPT test driver
tpt.ascetplatform.testenvironmentpath text path in ASCET to generated test frame

 

C/C++ Platform

Variable name Format Description
tpt.ccodeplatform.workdir dir working directory for the test execution

 

EXE Platform

Variable name Format Description
tpt.exeplatform.workdir dir working directory for the test execution

 

FUSION Platform

Variable name Format Description
tpt.fusionplatform.workdir dir working directory for the test execution

 

MATLAB/Simulink Platform

Variable name Format Description
tpt.matlab.modelname text name of the test frame model to be executed
tpt.matlab.modelname.original text name of the original model
tpt.matlab.modelfile file file name of the test frame model file that is responsible for execution
tpt.matlab.modelfile.dir dir directory where the model file (test frame model file) is stored
tpt.matlab.modelfile.original file file name of the original model file
tpt.matlab.modelfile.original.dir dir

directory where the original model file is stored
tpt.matlab.version text logical name of the MATLAB version
tpt.matlab.rootdir file directory where MATLAB is installed
tpt.matlab.restartnow int this value is 1 if MATLAB will be restarted immediately, otherwise the value is 0

MATLAB will be restarted (value is 1) if and only if the parameter "Restart MATLAB every X tests" is set and if the given number X of tests has been reached
tpt.matlab.paramstoworkspace text this variable will be substituted by a sequence of m-statements that set all the test parameters of EXCHANGE type defined in the TPT test case as MATLAB workspace variables

in order to use this feature, just add ${tpt.matlab.paramstoworkspace} as a statement into your run test script
