Scan test method, integrated circuit, and scan test circuit

A scan test method of an integrated circuit including a combinational circuit and flip-flops forming a scan chain is disclosed. The method first sets an initial test value to the flip-flops forming the scan chain by serial scan input. Then, it repeats a capture operation and a feedback shift operation. The capture operation captures an output of the combinational circuit, to which a value set to a flip-flop has been applied, by another flip-flop. The feedback shift operation feeds an output of the scan chain back to an input side of the scan chain for re-input during a shift operation in the scan chain. Finally, it compares an output of the scan chain with an expected value.
