Constraint Random Verification with Python and Cocotb
Abstract: Testing digital hardware has never been an easy job, and it won’t get easier any time soon. But that doesn’t mean writing test code can’t be enjoyable and productive! Cocotb, an approach to use Python as verification language, is bringing the joy back to verification. It allows developers to start with small, directed testbenches,… Read More »Constraint Random Verification with Python and Cocotb
Engineering best practices for Python-based testbenches with cocotb
Writing code is easy. Reading code is hard. Maintaining code is hard. Writing "good" code is hard. So what's "good code"? Don't despair: the software engineering community has come up with tons of practical solutions! Now it's time to apply them to your next Python verification project with cocotb. In this talk, we'll look at… Read More »Engineering best practices for Python-based testbenches with cocotb
Ways to run cocotb: makefiles, cocotb-test, or your custom setup
cocotb enables Python-based hardware verification, and it integrates into your simulator of choice, such as Aldec's Riviera-PRO and executes Python testbenches in that context. In this webinar, we will look at ways to invoke your simulator of choice in a way that also starts with cocotb. We will show ways to extend the setup to… Read More »Ways to run cocotb: makefiles, cocotb-test, or your custom setup
