What is fpga..to test fpga codes, is it necessary that requirement of xilink board?.

which is the language is used to develop fpga codes?
 

FPGA stands for Field Programmable Gate Array.
It is not necessary to have Xilinx board only for testing FPGA codes. It depends on which FPGA you are using. Currently you can get them from Xilinx, Altera, Lattice etc. Normally VHDL and verilog are used for developing FPGA programs.
A bit of googling will help you get more information.

field programmavle gate array. you can have more info by using the search mode.
 

To test the Verilog or VHDL code written for an FPGA, we commonly write a testbench and use an HDL simulator software such as ModelSim. If that's successful, then we synthesize (compile) the HDL, download it into the FPGA, and test the hardware.

It is also possible to test the synthesized (compiled) HDL in the simulator before downloading it into the FPGA, although this step isn't necessary for many projects.

In other words, you can do most of the FPGA development work without any FPGA hardware.
