    摘要: A model composition environment can allow for description of fill or partial symbolic system behavior, as well as the combination of models of specific features into compound models. Compositional operators can include intersection, concatenation, substitution, alternating refinement, as well as a set of regular expression-like operators. Models called “action machines” can represent object-oriented, reactive programs, and an action machine may be composed with another action machine using a compositional operator. This can allow for testing of particular scenarios or behaviors.

    摘要: Techniques and tools for testing multi-threaded or distributed software systems are described. For example, a multi-threaded system is instrumented and executed to produce logs of events that are performed by each of its agents. The agent logs contain a totally ordered series of events per agent, as well as information about accesses to resources shared between the agents. With this information, a partial ordering of the events performed by all the agents is described for the execution. The agent logs are then multiplexed into one or more serialized event orderings, which can then be compared to a specification of the system in a conformance testing engine.

    摘要: Exploration algorithms are relevant to the industrial practice of generating test cases from an abstract state machine whose runs define the predicted behavior of the software system under test. Here, a new exploration algorithm allows multiple state groupings to simultaneously guide the search for states that are interesting or relevant for testing. In some cases, the algorithm allows exploration to be optimized from exponential to linear complexity. An extended example is included that illustrates the use of the algorithm.

    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: Techniques and tools for generating finite state machines (“FSMs”) for a software system with asynchronous callbacks are described. For example, method invocations in a model of the software system are partitioned into observable and controlled method invocations. The controlled method invocations are those which can be run from a test harness while the observed method invocations are those which are observed asynchronously as they are invoked in the system. An FSM is created with observation and control nodes such that observable transitions are found from observation nodes and controlled transitions are found from control nodes. If a state of the model contains both controlled and observable invocations, a timeout transition is added to the FSM to give an implementation time to come up with an observed method invocation before continuing to controlled invocations.
