Simulation of Complex Mining Port Operation, with Robust Code Testing to Facilitate Model Longevity

Описание: Testing in code is widely recognized for its benefits, improved quality, maintainability, and early bug detection. But when it comes to simulation models, unit testing is surprisingly rare. In this presentation, Fortescue and Theia Simulation delve into the challenges of implementing unit tests in simulation environments, particularly using the JUnit framework within AnyLogic.

From agent setup complexities to simulation-triggered functionality, they explore why bugs in long-term models often go unnoticed and become difficult to trace. Drawing from their experience designing a robust testing strategy for a complex mining port simulation model intended to last over a decade, they share:

✅ The advantages of integrating testing early
⚠️ The hurdles faced and how they overcame them
📘 Key takeaways for developers building long-lived simulation models

This presentation is part of the AnyLogic Conference 2025 – showcasing innovative simulation modeling from the AnyLogic team and industry leaders.
