Questa Increase Coverage - A Formal etiquette solution for accelerating code coverage closure

 

Overview

 

Join us to learn how Questa Increase Coverage can help you achieve code coverage closure, faster.

  

 

 

 

Code coverage is a much-needed metric in most modern-day RTL design flows and coverage closure is a key step in any RTL design and verification process. It helps teams to ensure that all RTL code written is indeed exercised and verified prior to tape-out. One of the challenges in coverage closure is the time taken to get to 100% with potential waivers/exclusions. Traditionally, teams have deployed many RTL designers to review each uncovered item, to ensure it is a genuine hole and can be safely excluded. This process is expensive, time-consuming, and is prone to human errors.

 

This is where Questa Increase Coverage is useful. It flags code coverage items that are difficult to reach by formal techniques and haven’t been hit in simulation, thus providing a valuable measure of verification complexity. This guides engineers to make their designs more easily verifiable.

 

What You Will Learn:

• Why coverage closure is important
• How to set up and run Questa Increase Coverage
• How to generate coverage exclusion reports
• How to load exclusion reports to increase coverage numbers

Who Should Attend?

• Verification and design engineers who want to find out about unreachable coverage gaps automatically and achieve 100% code coverage faster within the stipulated time.
