VUnit Phases

In my previous article, I introduced VUnit events as one of many new features in VUnit 4.7. This time, I will build on these events and show how VUnit phases will add another level of reliability and control to your testbench. You will learn:

• The different phases a VUnit testbench traverses during its execution.
• How phases can be used by a process, such as a third part verification component (VC), to prevent a premature simulation exit without requiring non-intuitive coding constructs on the user side.
• How testbench processes can be made aware of an imminent simulation exit, allowing them to carry out exit tasks such as verifying the correctness of the final DUT state or logging interesting summary information.
