i am trying to implement an MIPS processor in Vivado ysing Vhdl.i have already written code for processor that has register file ,memory and all other functional units. Now I am trying to create a test bench and i want to understand the concept of writing the testbench in HDL languages.

A test bench is a mean of automatically generating test-vectors, to test your design and make sure that the functionality is met. Without a test bench you will have to manually force all possible input combinations and verify all the outputs in simulation waveform, which is a tedious task.
