FirstOrderTest

Test fixture for evaluating first-order system response to constant input.

This component connects a constant value (1.0) to a first-order system with gain 1.2 and time constant 0.1, allowing observation of the step response. The first-order system is expected to reach its steady state value of 1.2 after approximately 5 time constants (0.5 seconds). The metadata includes a test case that verifies this expected behavior after 10 seconds of simulation.

Usage

FirstOrderTest()

Behavior
