Abstract
Examples of techniques for modifying testing tools are described herein. An example computer-implemented method includes receiving, via a processor, a netlist comprising a complex coverage event that depends on a singular independent signal. The method includes detecting, via the processor, that complex coverage event can be separated into the singular independent signal and a logic state based on a structural logic analysis. The method also includes modifying, via the processor, a testing tool to test the netlist based on the singular independent signal.
