Automatic Formal Synthesis of Hardware from Higher Order Logic
A compiler that automatically translates recursive function definitions in higher order logic to clocked synchronous hardware is described. Compilation is by mechanised proof in t...

Automatically Generating Counterexamples to Naive Free Theorems
Disproof can be as important as proof in studying programs and programming languages. In particular, side conditions in a statement about program behavior are sometimes best unders...

Contract-Driven Development
Although unit tests are recognized as an important tool in software development, programmers prefer to write code, rather than unit tests. Despite the emergence of tools like JUni...

A formal analysis of requirements-based testing
The aim of requirements-based testing is to generate test cases from a set of requirements for a given system or piece of software. In this paper we propose a formal semantics for...

Test Data Generation for Programs with Quantified First-Order Logic Specifications
We present a novel algorithm for test data generation that is based on techniques used in formal software verification. Prominent examples of such formal techniques are symbolic ex...
