huh ?!? hardware description language ?? VHDL ?? RTL ??
can we please stay in software development here and use terms and metaphors that everyone can relate to ?
I am terribly sorry that this blows your mind. This wasn't a metaphor. This was an example how testing is done in other languages. Writing VHDL code is the same C++ code. It needs testing. All I did was trying to find a real advantage for all this branching stuff. If narrow mindedness and the failure of thinking out of the box is the git way, then let me quote you: "--> yeah, thanks but no thanks."
