According to the present invention, the outputs of the last scanning flip-flop circuits 12 included in scan chains 111 are compiled and compressed in an output compression circuit 112, a sum of the outputs from the scan chains 111 and an expected value written in an expected value storage circuit 113 from the outside are compared with each other in an expected value decision circuit 114, the sum being outputted from the output compression circuit 112, a pass/fail decision result obtained by the comparison can be outputted from an output terminal 116 of the expected value decision circuit 114 to the outside, and the decision result can be stored regardless of the reset of a system.
