A system and method for programmable in-situ launch and capture clock generation is provided. The system provides an efficient and improved manner for delay and signal transition fault testing in electronic circuits. The system comprises i) an in-situ delay clock generator for generating one or more clocks; ii) a pulse Programmable Selection Generator (PSG) which can be either a pulse PSG and/or an expanded pulse PSG for generating the sequence in which the clocks are to be selected, the clocks being selected with a delay; and iii) a multiplexer for selecting the plurality of clocks, based on the generated sequence, the selected clocks being used for generating the launch and capture clocks.
