A diagnostic test generation system for computing I/sub DQQ/ diagnostic test sets for bridging faults in combinational circuits is presented. The system uses fault sampling. Experimental results presented show that fault sampling is a very effective method for computing diagnostic test sets, especially when the number of target faults is very large.
