Updated Nov 27, 2025
Performance Notes
Use optimized simulation settings for large designs
Run parallel simulations for multiple testcases
Avoid overly complex random constraints that slow simulation
Incrementally verify modules before full system simulation
Leverage coverage metrics to avoid unnecessary simulation
Security Notes
Protect IP design files with access controls
Ensure testbench code does not leak confidential DUT data
Use licensed EDA tools according to agreements
Control access to simulation environments
Verify scripts to prevent unintentional overwrites
Monitoring Analytics
Waveform viewers to debug signals
Coverage reports to measure verification completeness
Assertion failures analyzed for functional bugs
Simulation logs to track stimulus and response
Regression results tracked for design iterations
Code Quality
Follow consistent naming conventions
Use modular and reusable classes
Document interfaces and assertions
Maintain simulation scripts with version control
Ensure testbench scalability and maintainability
