ABSTRACT:
A method for minimizing compilation time of a test case during development testing of an integrated circuit is provided. The method initiates with identifying a test case. The test case is associated with the tasks and the tasks are written as text files. Then, a file associated with the test case is generated. Next, a sequence of the tasks of the file is determined. Then, hardware description language (HDL) tasks, associated with the tasks of the file according to the sequence, are identified. Next, a simulation of an integrated circuit is performed through the HDL tasks. A computer readable medium having program instructions for minimizing compilation time of a test case during development testing of an integrated circuit and a system for testing an integrated circuit design are also provided.
