Can i ignore one bin and still see how many hits happened?

In reply to Jonathan_Alvarez:

Hi, it seems that you can see in the tool the bin hits for ignore_bins.
As shown in the picture below. The counter on the coverage column will increment on any bin hit. That means, you can still use ignore bins for debug purposes and see if the ignore bins have been triggered.

Regarding knowing the last sample time for a bin i think the best way would be to create a custom uvm_info message for that condition, inside the sample function. Unfortunately, there is no other way to do this without more coding. Alternative, you can use the “illegal_bin” type which will give you an error (no info) with the time of execution.

Note: An interesting paper of what can be done with the time of the first hit of a bin called “FTPT” or First Time Per Test.
