Abstract
A method and apparatus to enable SystemVerilog based tools to compile, debug, and execute a standardized testing language based test bench. The testing harness comprises, in one embodiment, a translator to map TTCN-3 language to a SystemVerilog test bench, a Verilog syntax compiler and simulator database including the mapped TTCN-3 language data, and a run time system using the SystemVerilog test bench with the database including the mapped TTCN-3 language data.
Claims20
A processor-executed method of testing comprising:
- mapping Testing and Test Control Notation Version 3 (TTCN-3) test language to a SystemVerilog test bench;
- storing the mapped TTCN-3 test language with a SystemVerilog syntax compiler;
- and
- running the SystemVerilog test bench, with the mapped TTCN-3 test language.
1 more element
A testing harness comprising:
- a translator stored in a memory to map Testing and Test Control Notation, Version 3 (TTCN-3) language to a SystemVerilog test bench;
- a SystemVerilog syntax compiler and a simulator database, including the mapped TTCN-3 language;
- and
- a run time system using the SystemVerilog test bench with the simulator database including the mapped TTCN-3 language.
1 more element
A testing apparatus comprising:
- a Testing and Test Control Notation, Version 3 (TTCN-3) standardized testing language stored in a memory;
- a SystemVerilog testing harness;
- a SystemVerilog syntax compiler and a simulator database, including a mapped TTCN-3 standardized testing language;
- and
- a testing set-up including the SystemVerilog testing harness with the TTCN-3 standardized testing language, including mapping functions and communications from the TTCN-3 standardized testing language to SystemVerilog format, such that a runtime system using the SystemVerilog testing harness uses the mapped TTCN-3 standardized testing language.
