Research
The paper introduces coverage-directed test selection, a supervised-learning-based method for automatic constraint extraction and test selection in simulation-based verification. According to the abstract, the method uses coverage feedback to prioritize tests that have a high probability of increasing functional coverage, with the goal of reducing manual constraint writing, prioritizing effective tests, reducing verification resource consumption, and accelerating coverage closure on a large industrial hardware design.
