Configuring Time Estimates in the HTML Report

The Verissimo SystemVerilog Testbench Linter can be configured to show time estimates for fixing each failure in the generated HTML report.

Viewing Time Estimates in the Report

Statistics regarding how much time is needed to fix all errors, warnings or info are available in the summary page chart. Top fixing effort tables show the top 10 checks and files by fixing effort. The failures table shows how much fixing effort is needed for each failure. The cumulative effort for all the failures displayed in the table is shown at the top.

Defining Time Estimates

You can define time estimates in the ruleset's configuration tag as named effort levels. Then you can map each check to one of the defined effort levels. You can also define a default effort level to be applied for all checks that do not explicitly specify an effort level. If the default is also not specified, one second will be counted per each failure.
