Abstract
Messages transmitted from an emulator to a testbench of a part of the testbench are recorded from a starting point of an emulation operation to a checkpoint of the emulation operation. State information of the emulator at the checkpoint is captured and stored. The emulator is then configured to a state corresponding to the checkpoint based on the stored state information, and the testbench or the part of the testbench is restored to the checkpoint by running the testbench or the part of the testbench based on the recorded messages.
