A.3.3. Verification Statistics Report

For each component that the testbench calls, the verification statistics report provides information such as the number and type of invocations, latency, initiation interval, and throughput.

The verification statistics report becomes available after you simulate your component.

Important:

The following example verification statistics report is for a component dut that has been run once as a simple function call and 100 times as an enqueued invocation:

For components that use explicit streams, such as ihc::stream_in<> or ihc::stream_out<>, the verification statistics report also provides the throughput for each individual stream, as shown in the details pane:

View the simulation waveform by following the instructions in Debugging during Verification.
