Hi Brad,

VUnit has support for running OSVVM style of testbenches. You’ll find the information here: http://vunit.github.io/blog/2023_08_26_vhdl_configurations.html. I also recommend looking into open-source
GHDL and NVC. Once you’ve started multi-threaded simulations, there is no going back and you will most likely want
to use all your processing cores.

Interesting, I admit that while I’ve gotten familiar with a lot of what OSVVM offers, test suites are something I usually set for each DUT and just include all tests within that single suite.

I will look into doing this today to do some hands on testing but am I reading this right in that this multiple test suite configuration would allow for…[Read more]

Hi Brad,
Currently if you run things from VUnit, you loose all the OSVVM reporting. This is a direction we are currently investigating, but will either need to uplevel our tcl expertise or outside help.

How many different simulation sets do you intend to run? What I do normally is group my tests into test suites that test individual…[Read more]

Hi Steve,
While I think we have all of the OSVVM Utility library for Xcelium, I am not sure if Xcelium runs all of OSVVM VC test cases yet. I am not as good at Xcelium as other simulators. I would be willing to look at it with you and can setup a Zoom session if you like. I need to learn how to single step in Xcelium.

Do you know which…[Read more]
