Devices, methods, computer readable media, and other embodiments are described for automated formal analysis and verification of a circuit design. One embodiment involves accessing a circuit design and a set of default verification targets for the circuit design. A plurality of partitions for the circuit design are then automatically generated, and a first partition is analyzed to generate a first set of verification targets for the first partition based on the set of default verification targets and a set of partition and schedule values for the first partition. A first formal verification analysis is performed on the first partition, the first set of verification targets, and the set of partition and schedule values, and a formal verification output is generated based on the first formal verification analysis. Various embodiments can additionally involve stagnation analysis and additional automation to customize the analysis for each partition.
