UVM is the most widely used Verification methodology for functional verification of digital hardware (described using Verilog, SystemVerilog or VHDL at appropriate abstraction level). It is based on OVM and is developed by Accellera. It consists of base libraries written in SystemVerilog which enables the end user to create testbench components faster using these base libraries. Due to its benefits such as reusability, efficiency and automation macros it is a widely accepted verification methodology.
UVM has a lot of features so it's difficult for a new user to use it efficiently. A better efficiency can be obtained by customizing the UVM base library and applying certain tips and tricks while building UVM testbenches, which is mainly the
