Abstract
An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to a system and method for facilitating coverage feedback testcase generation reproducibility. The system comprises: a testcase generator comprising an instruction generator and an instruction simulator; an internal coverage domain accessible to the testcase generator, a regeneration file storing updated testcase data; and a temporary holding structure. The internal coverage domain comprises: coverage domain elements; a session component; and a prior cumulative history component. Upon generating a testcase by the testcase generator, a regeneration file is constructed utilizing testcase data updates acquired during execution of the testcase. The updates are provided by the temporary holding structure. The invention also comprises a method and storage medium.
