The classical tests use the S3 class system, not the S4 system. They
don't have slots, and they don't have formal class representations (they
weren't created with setClass).
The message could perhaps be clearer, but it is saying that there is no
formal definition of a "htest" class and so you can't use the @ operator
on these objects.
