ContinuousClockTest ​

Test that evaluates a continuous clock signal integrated over time.

This test component connects a continuous clock signal to an integrator to validate the clock's behavior. The continuous clock starts at time 0.5 with an offset of 1.0, generating a signal that increases linearly with time (y = t + offset when t ≥ start_time). The integrator accumulates this signal, resulting in a quadratic response. The test verifies both the clock output and the integrated value against expected results at t=5.
