Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for electronic design verification. Embodiments may include providing, using one or more processors, an electronic design verification environment having a plurality of randomize calls associated therewith. Embodiments can also include selecting one of the plurality of randomize calls for analysis at a constraint solver engine and iteratively analyzing the selected randomize call using a plurality of constraint solver algorithms. Embodiments can also include automatically determining a most effective constraint solver algorithm for the selected randomize call.
