Abstract
A method for enhancing synchronization coverage for a logic code is provided. The method comprises tracking whether one or more code sections in the logic code are blocked by at least another code section in the logic code, or whether one or more code sections in the logic code are blocking at least another code section in the logic code, during one or more test runs; and including one or more delay mechanisms in the logic code to introduce a delay in execution of a first code section in the logic code, wherein length of introduced delay is dependent on whether the first code section was blocked by a second code section or whether the first code section was blocking the second code section.
