Abstract

Applicability of formal methods in requirement capturing and analysis is determined to a great extent by how well the respective formalism matches the adopted engineering practice. Conventional notation of mathematical logic obviously has little chance to succeed as such formalization tool. A technology based on formalism of “basic protocols” derived from the modeling languages UML/MSC which became a de facto standard in the current engineering practice is described in this paper. It allows for automated test generation for software which guarantees 100% coverage of thus formalized requirements. Suite optimization w.r.t. various criteria borrowed from practice is discussed, as well as potential directions for further research.
