Functional verification is a cornerstone of successful design, yet its complexity often poses significant challenges. In this presentation, we'll explore some of the key verification methodologies, focusing on practical approaches that enhance efficiency and reliability. While the discussion will remain broad to resonate with a wide audience, specific topics such as testbench strategies, coverage metrics, and reuse will be examined in greater detail.

This session aims to spark conversation and share insights rather than providing all-encompassing solutions. Attendees will gain an understanding of fundamental practices, some actionable tips, and a platform to exchange ideas about overcoming common verification challenges..
