Cocotb tests discovery¶

Diplomat automatically discover tests from Cocotb testbenches. This is done by looking up Makefiles in the workspace tree and then checking if they match a cocotb makefile.

The tests are then individually discovered and can be run using the built-in “Testing” pane of VS Code.

Note

Only files named Makefile containing the line include $(shell cocotb-config --makefiles)/Makefile.sim will be analyzed.

Tip

It is possible to select multiple tests to run and they will be lauched together.
