In a test generation process for a combinational circuit six tests, t t t t t t are generated to cover a set of given faults. Later it is discovered that we are interested only in a subset of the faults and the subset consists of eight faults, f f f f f f f f
Though simulating the six tests for each of the faults without fault dropping we find the detection capability of each test as given below.
The test t can detect faults f and f
The test t can detect faults f and f
The test t can detect faults f f and f
The test t can detect faults f f and f
The test t can detect faults f and f
The test t can detect faults f f f and f
Find a smallest set of tests that can detect all eight faults. You must show your work to prove that the set obtained by you is the smallest set. CO
