Abstract
A method, computer program product, and/or system is disclosed for testing integrated circuits, e.g., processors, that includes: generating a software design prototype of the functional behavior of an integrated circuit to be tested; creating a lab All-Events-Trace (AET) normalized model of the integrated circuit, wherein the normalized model captures the functions of the integrated circuit and not the non-functional aspects of the integrated circuit; generating a lab scenario using the software design prototype and the AET normalized model of the integrated circuit for a particular cycle of interest, wherein the lab scenario contains initialization for all signals that have hardware information; and generating a replayed lab normalized AET for the particular cycle of interest.
