Abstract
A test template comprising a repetitive block instruction is translated to a stimuli to be used by a target computerized system or a simulator of such a system. The translation comprises reusing translated portion of the repetitive block instruction in order to reduce translation time and to hasten testing phase of the target computerized system. Reuse may be affected by subcomponents of the target computerized system, a predetermined minimal or maximal number of instructions to reuse, and a heuristic determination to increase possibility of discovering a bug using the stimuli.
