  4. Under NativeLink Settings, select the Compile test bench option.
  5. Click the Test Benches button.
  6. Click the New option to create a new test bench.
  7. Specify testbench_1 as the test bench name and tb as the top-level module in the test bench.
  8. Under Test bench and simulation files, enter or select testbench_1.v file, click Add, and then click OK. The Test Benches dialog displays the properties of the test benches in your project.
