Abstract
Automated management of verification waivers is disclosed. In one embodiment a method is provided comprising issuing a request to perform a verification run on a component of an electric circuit design, receiving configuration data specifying a list of waivers extracted from a plurality of waivers applicable to the electric circuit design as a whole where the list of waivers is extracted based on waiver validity period data and is applicable to the component rather than the electric circuit design as a whole. The described method further comprises identifying a potential design defect and generating a verification run result including a set of design defects of the component, the set including the potential design defect if no waiver of the list of waivers is determined to be applicable.
