Abstract:Efficient and effective testing for simulation-based hardware verification is challenging. Using constrained random test generation, several millions of tests may be required to achieve coverage goals. The vast majority of tests do not contribute to coverage progress, yet they consume verification resources. In this paper, we propose a hybrid intelligent testing approach combining two methods that have previously been treated separately, namely Coverage-Directed Test Selection and Novelty-Driven Verification. … Show more
