Integrate testing and observability into the design phase rather than bolting them on later. Prioritize practices that give the fastest feedback to developers (fast unit tests, deterministic integration tests, good instrumentation) while maintaining a layered testing strategy that covers integration, system, and failure scenarios.
Test time reduced from 15 seconds to 0.8 seconds per chip; fault coverage >98.5%; zero test escapes after 1M units. Integrate testing and observability into the design phase

In the world of VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration), engineers often tell the story of the It suggests that the cost of detecting a faulty chip increases tenfold at every stage of production—from the silicon wafer to the packaged chip, then to the printed circuit board, and finally to the system in the field. then to the printed circuit board
