During a typical development process, there are many occasions where a change needs to be made to a block, which must then be retested to ensure functional equivalence. For example, once a block has been proven to operate correctly, a designer may wish to optimize some section, maybe to improve the coding style, reduce the gate count or streamline operation. Today, an engineer must execute an entire simulation regression run to verify each change. This often requires a lot of time and may also need additional stimulus, with no guarantee that an exhaustive functional check will be performed.
