uvm assertion

UVM (Universal Verification Methodology) assertion is a statement or a check that verifies the correctness of the design under test (DUT) during the verification process. It is a formal statement that describes the expected behavior of a DUT and is used to verify that the design meets its specifications.

UVM assertions are written using the SystemVerilog Assertion (SVA) syntax and can be applied at different levels of abstraction, including the module, block, and system levels. They are typically used to verify functional correctness, timing constraints, and protocol compliance of a DUT.

UVM assertions are essential in modern verification methodologies as they provide a formal and automated way of verifying the correctness of a design. They can help to catch design bugs early in the verification process, leading to faster and more efficient verification.
