Conformance testing for real-time systems

M Krichen, S Tripakis - Formal Methods in System Design, 2009 - Springer
We propose a new framework for black-box conformance testing of real-time systems. The
framework is based on the model of partially-observable, non-deterministic timed automata …

Model-based testing of object-oriented reactive systems with Spec Explorer

M Veanes, C Campbell, W Grieskamp… - Formal Methods and …, 2008 - Springer
Testing is one of the costliest aspects of commercial software development. Model-based

Generating finite state machines from abstract state machines

W Grieskamp, Y Gurevich, W Schulte… - Proceedings of the 2002 …, 2002 - dl.acm.org
We give an algorithm that derives a finite state machine (FSM) from a given abstract state
machine (ASM) specification. This allows us to integrate ASM specs with the existing tools …

O Niese - 2003 - eldorado.tu-dortmund.de
The increasing complexity of today's testing scenarios for complex systems demands an
integrated, open, and flexible approach to support the management of the overall test …

Model-driven software verification

GJ Holzmann, R Joshi - Model Checking Software: 11th International SPIN …, 2004 - Springer
In the classic approach to logic model checking, software verification requires a manually
