Systematic verification and testing

Systematic verification and testing
Systematic verification and testing
In this chapter, we present a process pattern for model based specification, verification and testing. It combines concepts of behaviour driven development (BDD), graphical and formal, mathematical modelling, formal verification techniques, acceptance testing and model based testing. The rigorous approach helps to ensure that for highly dependable systems, dependability (e.g. safety) requirements are fulfilled and both the specified and the implemented behaviour are as desired. It helps bridging the gap between natural language or semi-formal requirements and mathematical abstraction. Furthermore, it addresses the issue that formal modelling expertise and domain knowledge are rarely held by the same set of people.

Abstract

In this chapter, we present a process pattern for model based specification, verification and testing. It combines concepts of behaviour driven development (BDD), graphical and formal, mathematical modelling, formal verification techniques, acceptance testing and model based testing. The rigorous approach helps to ensure that for highly dependable systems, dependability (e.g. safety) requirements are fulfilled and both the specified and the implemented behaviour are as desired. It helps bridging the gap between natural language or semi-formal requirements and mathematical abstraction. Furthermore, it addresses the issue that formal modelling expertise and domain knowledge are rarely held by the same set of people.
