Hi Tom,

The above post is absolutely correct, try at your end & let us know if you have any different concern.

You can also use the "Processing" Menu -> "Start" -> "Start Testbench Template Writer" option for testbench creation for the corresponding design.

Regards,

Vikas

    I removed the testbench copy in my "output directory" and every is OK now.

    There was two copy in my work and output directory. Quartus somehow place a copy in the output directory.

    But before I did that, I performed a "Set as top-level entity" to my Top Design But the Quartus compiler still selected my testbench to compile.

    Not sure why Quartus keep selecting the Testbench though. Any idea?

    Anyway, after I deleted the testbench in the output dir, everything work. Thanks

      Your project was probably still pointing to the file. That's why I suggested going to "Add/remove files" to make sure only the correct files would get compiled.
