Responding to: ???'s previous message
What you said is true, but you need to check the functioning of a circuit thorougly for the first time it is developed. And I am sure even if the theory behind a design is solid, you tend to reasure yourself by checking thoroughly and in different conditions.
No, I do not do as above.
Yes, I test with a series of different inputs, but only once with each.

specially after you have seen so many bugs in the past
You don't get it do you. NONE of these bugs were caught by "testing" however extensive. An example: a program blew up ONLY if interrupt a happened precisely while the instruction at location b was being executed. How long do you need to "test" for that coincidence to happen?. The fix was to change the order of 2 instructions.
