Abstract
Systems, methods, and a computer program are disclosed. One embodiment comprises a compiler for developing verification tests of an integrated circuit. The compiler comprises an interface and a built-in self-test (BIST) emulator. The interface includes an input and an output. The interface receives and forwards operator-level instructions to the BIST emulator, which is coupled to the output. The BIST emulator simulates the operation of a BIST module within the integrated circuit.
