Abstract
A system for detecting faults in fault detecting hardware designed to detect faults in a data flow comprising a fault generator for deliberately introducing faults in the data flow before it reaches the fault detecting hardware to establish a known background load of faults in the data flow. A fault counter counts actual faults including the deliberately introduced faults. Software analyzes a difference between the known and actual loads of faults.
