Abstract

This paper deals with conformance testing based on formal specifications. The concept of safe testing was earlier proposed by the authors for trace based conformance. This concept is propagated for the case of (weak) simulation based on a relation between the specification and implementation states. The theory of the safe simulation of systems with refusals and destructions is proposed. The problems of complete testing and sufficient conditions for the existence of a complete test suite are discussed. A practical algorithm of complete testing for restricted classes of specifications and implementations is described.
