[Vera] Is it necessary to read rvm?

[richardleo]

rvm is "reference verification methodology.pdf" by synopsys.

I'm a newbie, and I haven't constructed any testbench before. Now I should build one for a small module by myself. I have just skimmed over the lrm(language reference manual) and gone through "the art of verification with vera".

Some guy told me that we may not need synopsys' methodology, for his methodolgy will restrict your freedom. But I don't know whether the tradeoff is worth or not.

rvm is in your vera-installed directory/doc.
And you can also type "vera -doc" to read it .
And the latter is a book(not a ebook), I read it in hand.
