A method for verification of a vector execution unit design. The method includes issuing an instruction into a first instance and a second instance of a vector execution unit. The method includes issuing a random operand into a first lane of the first instance of the vector execution unit and into a second lane of the second instance of the vector execution unit. The method further includes receiving results from execution of the instruction and the random operand in both the first and the second instance of the vector execution unit and comparing the received results.
