Abstract
Techniques are provided for capturing a processing state snapshot of a device under test (DUT) that enable a previous test run to be restored and resumed from the same point the snapshot was taken. The techniques enable restoring the snapshot into the same or a different device to resume a previous test run. In an illustrative example, a DUT is controlled by a Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) test controller to capture a Steady State Snapshot by controlling peripheral components of the DUT to complete any on-going tasks to reach a steady state and then flush data to a memory of the DUT. The flushed steady state peripheral component data and other processing state data is transferred to the test controller for analysis and for enabling the subsequent restore and resume operation. Solid state drive (SSD) examples are provided.
