testing
Table based test generators are the simplest RTGs available. Creation of such generators can be accomplished relatively quickly, and maintenance requirements are often low. These generators work by capturing knowledge of the design's instruction set architecture and storing it in a relational database for later use. Because of their simplistic nature, table based generators may be used by less skilled personnel to create interesting tests. There is a drawback to these generators however, as their implementation is generally restricted to simple architectures. Usage on more complex ISAs may result in an inability to reach corner cases or create complex scenarios. Table based generators may also generate invalid tests at times.Table based test generators are the simplest RTGs available.
