How to use runtests() command

I have created a test script Test1.m using classes located in a folder called "test".

classdef Test1 < matlab.unittest.TestCase
... code...
end

I can run the tests by entering

run(Test1)

in the command window. Some members of my team are familiar with clicking 'Run Tests' button (or the equivalent of runtests() in command window). However, runtests("Test1.m") does not work with the below error:

Error using runtests 
Do not know what to run. Try "unit" or
"acceptance"

Is it due to the folder structure? How may i be able to run test script with 'Run Tests' button.

Hi doyz,

I understand your problem with using runtests() to run the test script that you have written. I can safely assume with your code snippet that you are working with class based unit tests in MATLAB. There is a specific way to write class based unit tests for it to be registered as tests in MATLAB. Refer to the following page and the example given in the page that talks in detail about class based unit tests in MATLAB.
