Verification is increasingly complex, and SystemVerilog is one of the languages that the verification community is turning to. However, no language by itself can guarantee success without proper techniques. Object-oriented programming (OOP), with its focus on managing complexity, is ideally suited to this task.    With this handbook—the first to focus on applying OOP to SystemVerilog—we’ll show how to manage complexity by using layers of abstraction and base classes. By adapting these techniques, you will write more ''reasonable'' code, and build efficient and reusable verification components.    Both a learning tool and a reference, this handbook contains hundreds of real-world code snippets and three professional verification-system examples. You can copy and paste from these examples, which are all based on an open-source, vendor-neutral framework (with code freely available at www.trusster.com).    Learn about OOP techniques such as these:      Creating classes—code interfaces, factory functions, reuse      Connecting classes—pointers, inheritance, channels      Using ''correct by construction''—strong typing, base classes      Packaging it up—singletons, static methods, packages
