Software languages vs HDLs for verification

• UVVM

  6 326 6.1 VHDL

  UVVM (Universal VHDL Verification Methodology) is a free and Open Source Methodology and Library for very efficient VHDL verification of FPGA and ASIC – resulting also in significant quality improvement. Community forum: https://forum.uvvm.org/ UVVM.org: https://uvvm.org/

Using the open source UVVM (Universal VHDL Verification Methodology) will allow you to write high level (transaction level) testbenches using commands like 'axistream_transmit(my_byte_array)'. UVVM includes a large range of open source interface access mechanisms like that (BFMs & Verification components) like AXI, AXI-lite, AXI-stream, Avalon, Avalon-stream, Ethernet, GMII, RGMII, I2C, SPI, SBI, UART, etc. You can check out my presentation from DVCon US 2022 on 'Bringing UVM to VHDL' to get an introduction to UVVM. There are also lots of different webinars available for free on various aspects of UVVM.
