Test code and test data is replicated into a memory cache with non-naturally aligned data boundaries to reduce the time needed to generate test cases for testing a processor. Placing test code and test data in the non-naturally aligned data boundaries as described herein allows test code and data to be replicated throughout a cache memory while preserving double word and quad word boundaries in segments of the replicated test code and test data. Coherency of the processor memory can be tested when the same cache line from the level two (L2) cache is simultaneously in both the level one (L1) instruction cache and the L1 data cache.
