Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to testing a software interface for a streaming hardware device through simulation. Methods include receiving, by a processor, a data manipulation request and a data segment associated with the data manipulation request and generating, by the software interface, an input data stream comprising control information and the data segment. The method also includes transmitting the input data stream to a simulation device and generating, by the simulation device, an output data stream in response to the input data stream, the output data stream including a delineator, control data, a manipulated data segment and a trailing delineator. The simulation device is configured to simulate the operation of the streaming hardware device by performing the data manipulation request.
