Abstract
A method for automatic extraction of design properties of a hardware design, is provided. The method includes running a hardware design simulation to generate simulation results for the hardware design. The simulation results are then analyzed to extract properties. The extracted properties can be a powerful tool for the design engineers and the test-writers to learn more about the functional coverage of the test suites.
