    Hi,


    Since you are using Quartus Prime Pro edition, you will need to edit your .do file before you simulate your project. From your .do file you are missing a lot of commands:

    1. Compile all design and testbench files in your project. "vlog -vlog01compat -work work ../<design and testbench files>"
    2. This is to set the top-level simulation or testbench module/entity name. "set TOP_LEVEL_NAME <simulation top>"
    3. Call command to elaborate your design and testbench. "elab"
    4. To run the simulation. "run -a"


    You can refer to section 1.4 of this document to understand better: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/ug/ug-20093.pdf#page=6


    You also need to save your file as wojtek.do instead of wojtek.tcl.


    Best regards,
