Automated Random Test Generator

Concept

An **automated random test generator** is a verification tool or methodology that creates randomized microcode or instruction test sequences to exercise a processor design. In modern microprocessor verification, these generators have increasingly replaced hand-written directed tests because processor complexity has grown and directed tests are less effective at covering large stimulus spaces.[^src]
