2.8. Automating Simulation with the Run Simulation Feature

You can use the Run Simulation feature in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software to integrate your supported third-party EDA simulator and automate the following steps of the simulation flow:
  • Automatic generation of simulator-specific files and setup scripts.
  • Automatic compilation of simulation libraries.
  • Automatic launch of your simulator after running Quartus® Prime Analysis & Elaboration.

You can use the simulation scripts that Run Simulation generates as a starting point to create more custom simulation scripts that may be required for large or complex FPGA designs.

Note: The current version of the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software supports the Run Simulation feature for only RTL simulation, not gate-level simulation.
