An integrated circuit test method provides an interactive shell environment having analysis modules organized as a directory such that for a given session a user can access any of the analysis modules. This invention describes a virtual directory structure for navigating through the entire test data starting from design, test configuration, ATPG patterns, failure information and callout information. This structure also allows the creation of a scripting environment for the user to select a specific configuration and process the information. User can achieve all of this in a single session as opposed to working on every test configuration in an independent session.
