Abstract
A computer-readable recording medium stores therein a verification support program that causes a computer to execute receiving a hardware description of a combinational circuit to be verified; extracting, from the hardware description, a conditional branch description expressing conditional branch processing; identifying, from among conditional branch descriptions extracted at the extracting of a conditional branch description and based on a description sequence in the hardware description, a combination of conditional branch descriptions having a hierarchical relation; extracting, from among combinations of conditional branch descriptions identified at the identifying, a combination having a potential to satisfy a specified condition; creating a simulation program that causes the specified condition for the conditional branch descriptions included in the combination extracted at the extracting of the combination to be satisfied; and outputting, as assertion information of the combinational circuit, the simulation program created for each combination at the creating.
