The Phoenix NLME Validation Suite provides automated tests to validate local execution of Phoenix NLME functions and options, including PK, PD, PKPD, and Indirect modeling and data manipulation. Following an automated test run, the Phoenix NLME Validation Suite generates a report that details the tests and results.
For a complete list of tests, see “NLME test cases”.
The three base tests include an installation test case to verify that all Phoenix files have been installed in the correct locations and that they have not been modified. The other two base test cases verify that 1) two CSV files known to match will correctly be passed when compared on the user’s system and 2) two CSV files known to differ will correctly be failed when compared on the user’s system. These two test cases verify that the Validation Suite tool is functioning as intended.
Note:The Phoenix Model Object (NLME engine) can only run on 64-bit systems, so any test cases for the NLME will have a status of “not applicable” (N/A) on 32-bit systems.
Framework Tests
PHX Installation: Proper installation of all files in the correct location.
CSV File Comparison Success: Correct identification of identical CSV files by the comparison tool.
CSV File Comparison Failure: Correct identification of differing CSV files by the comparison tool.
