A new approach to detecting and diagnosing faults in quantum circuits is introduced. In order to account for the probabilistic nature of quantum circuits, collections of test experiments, called binary tomographic tests (BTTs), are generated. A BTT can identify a fault with respect to some user-defined confidence threshold τ. We present an algorithm to generate BTTs that either detect, or ensure the absence of, all modeled faults in a given circuit. We also present an adaptive diagnostic method to locate quantum faults. While classical circuits, even probabilistic ones, only handle ordinary probabilities, quantum circuits deal with quantum states, which have phase as an extra probabilistic parameter. The tomographic testing methods introduced previously for probabilistic circuits are unable to detect differences in phase, and therefore leave many quantum faults undetected. In contrast, we develop a design-for-test method which is specifically intended to detect faults that only affect the phase of a quantum state. We give experimental results for benchmark and random circuits which show high coverage of quantum faults by BTTs, and good resolution in the case of the adaptive diagnosis method.
