Abstract :
This paper presents a multi-language test planning system, which is based on a goal-tree based test methodology. Multi-language support is achieved by adding a common abstraction layer on the top of different language specific details. The effectiveness of this strategy is demonstrated by using this tool for testing VHDL and SystemC models of a GSM system.
