Load Stored Coverage Test Results with cvload

Load Stored Coverage Test Results with cvload
The cvload command loads into memory the coverage tests and results stored in a file
by the cvsave command. The following example loads the tests and data stored in the
text file filename.cvt:
[cvtos, cvdos] = cvload(filename)
The cvtest objects that are loaded are returned in cvtos, a cell array of cvtest
objects. The cvdata objects that are loaded are returned in cvdos, a cell array of
cvdata objects. cvdos has the same size as cvtos, but can contain empty elements if a
particular test has no results.
In the following example, if restoretotal is 1, the cumulative results from prior runs
are restored:
[cvtos, cvdos] = cvload(filename, restoretotal)
If restoretotal is unspecified or 0, the model's cumulative results are cleared.
cvload Special Considerations
When using the cvload command, be aware of the following considerations:
• When a model with the same name exists in the coverage database, only the
compatible results are loaded from the file. They reference the existing model to
prevent duplication.
• When the Simulink models referenced in the file are open but do not exist in the
coverage database, the coverage tool resolves the links to the models that are already
open.
• When you are loading several files that reference the same model, only the results
that are consistent with the earlier files are loaded.
