    摘要: Techniques and tools for generating test cases for methods or programs with input preconditions are described. For example, after finding feasible control flow paths for a tested method along with each path's associated input conditions, a new program is created which tests these conditions along with the precondition. By analyzing this new program's control flow graph, a class of test cases is found while avoiding inefficiencies created by doing complete searches of paths through the combined control flow graph of the precondition and the method. Additional efficiencies are introduced by partitioning a control flow graph for the precondition into branched and straight sections.

    摘要: A test domain configuration module generates graphical user interfaces for identifying information about desired tests such as data types and domain configurations, and collects information used by other modules to generate tests. The identified information may include, for example, an abstract syntax, a static semantic, max counts on instances of data types, or costs of field accesses or data types for max path costs or max expression costs. A test input generator, generates test input for the identified and configured data types. In one case, the generated test inputs are generated as tree data structures. A predicate determines whether a generated test input follows semantic conditions. A test input evaluator counts instances of data types in, sums paths through, or sums total costs of, the generated test inputs. A test acceptance module saves test inputs acceptable to the predicate and the test input evaluator.

    摘要: The subject invention pertains to systems and methods for iterating over or otherwise traversing a collection of objects or elements. More specifically, mechanisms are provided for handling both conventional non-nested streams such as enumeratables as well as nested streams. Nested streams provide a more efficient mechanism for traversing certain objects such as recursive generators. One problem with nested streams is that they need to be flattened or simplified. Techniques are provided herein to allow such streams to be flattened quickly and efficiently. Moreover, systems and methods are disclosed to preserve backward compatibility of optimized nested stream processing with conventional non-nested streams.

    摘要: The present invention provides systems and methods that isomorphically maps constructs between domain spaces (e.g., object, markup, relational and user interface domains). The systems and methods employ a mapping component that utilizes at least one suppress label(s), introduce label(s) and/or mediating schema to facilitate construct mapping. Examples of such mapping include transforming a named construct to an anonymous construct, a named construct to a named construct, an anonymous construct to a named construct, and an anonymous construct to an anonymous construct. In general, introduce labels can be utilized to provide names for anonymous constructs and/or modify existing names; suppress labels typically are utilized to suppress names such as introduced names or names a user desires to be suppressed; and mediating schema can be utilized to provide a default or user customized mapping to an intermediate schema before, during and/or after construct mapping.

    摘要: A type system employing structural subtyping is disclosed herein. A core type system supports several structural types, such as stream, choice, intersection and sequence. Also part of the core type system is a new invariant type, which denotes values whose dynamic type is the same as its static type, and type restrictions for limiting a range of a base type. Furthermore, a streamlined structural version of delegates, called structural delegates and a validation method thereof are introduce into the type system. To further facilitate type safety, strict statically checked interface casts are introduced.

    摘要: Modeling protocols. A method includes accessing a number of model programs. Each model program includes computer-executable instructions. The computer-executable instructions describe the behavior of at least one of another program, system, or component. Model programs may be disjointed in that they have independent meaning or dependent in that they include at least one of a state variable, action, or precondition that is dependent on another model program to impart meaning to the model program. An output model program is composed by unification including substituting state variables into another of the model programs without executing the model programs. Traces are generated from the output model program. Each of the traces includes a path of labels. The labels describe actions of the output model program from an initial state to an accepting state where a run is allowed to stop. The traces are output to a user.

    摘要: A method and apparatus to generate a test suite from an abstract state machine (ASM) involves generating a finite state machine (FSM) for the ASM, and generating the test suite from the FSM. An initial state of the ASM is selected. A first encoding having a plurality of bits is generated to represent the initial state. Each bit of the first encoding represents a result of an evaluation of a non-trivial guard condition of the ASM. The initial state is associated with the first encoding in the data structure for the FSM. At least one other states of the ASM are identified that result from applying at least one actions of the ASM to the initial state. At least one other encodings are generated, each of the at least one other encodings corresponding to one of the at least one other states, and for each one of the at least one other states, when the corresponding of the at least one other encodings is not the same as the any one encoding already associated with a state in the data structure, data is included in the data structure associating the one of the at least one other states and a corresponding of the at least one other encodings.
