Abstract

A validation system is disclosed for validating function of a packet-management unit operationally coupled through a system interface to a processing unit of a processor system. The validation system comprises a user interface for creating an inputting test parameters and test code into the system, a test generator coupled to the user interface, the test generator for generating input packet activity in the form of a packet stream, a model coupled to the test generator for emulating separate and integrated function of the packet management unit, the system interface, and a stream-processing unit and an evaluation software for checking and validating or not validating results. The system validation function relies, in a preferred embodiment, on comparing output results with criteria of the selected test code resulting in an indication of pass or failure of the test. In a preferred embodiment, the system also notifies to cause of failure.
