Abstract

This paper presents an instrumentation technique to exercise the exceptional behavior of Java programs using the Java Pathfinder model checker. First, programs statements that are potentially able to throw exceptions are identified, and then a set of Java instructions are inserted into programs source code to throw exceptions, producing an instrumented program. Java Pathfinder is applied over this instrumented code to perform multiple executions of the system under verification and cover the program exceptional behavior. Additionally, our technique proposes a prototype of a new Java Pathfinder class to verify and test Java exceptions.
