Thread Subject: running scripts with a variable

Hi guys,
I am trying to implement a code in matlab. I need to run a file based on the input i feed in

for instance I want to run testfile2.m

testcase = 2;
testfile = ['testfile', num2str(testcase), '.m'];

run testfile; %wish to run testfile2.m


how can I implement this.

thanks in advance

run(testfile)

Thanks both of them work without the '.m'

testfile = ['testfile', num2str(testcase)];

run(testfile);
