In reply to cturner:

Not exactly sure what you are asking for. Your class declaration starts off with

class specific_test extends test_base;

So what else needs to be documented?

In reply to dave_59:

I’m looking for a standard way to show the derived class relationship in a presentation, not the source code.

One can nicely show module hierarchy as top.dut.sub_sys.
One can similarly show parent/child relationship as parent.child.grandchild.

I’m wonderig if there is a short hand way to indicate a derived class relationship without openning source code.
A more complex derived class relationship might be (with my made-up psuedo syntax):
pcie_tl_error_test<-pcie_tl_test<-pcie_test<-test_base.

This is an OOP documentation question.

I would look to UML class diagrams for ideas.
