Abstract
In this paper we describe how a software testbed is used to determine the quality of testing of Algol 68 programs. The system monitors the execution of an Algol 68 program and obtains a run-time execution history. This history is then compared with the results of a static analysis and three levels of testing are calculated. The third level is an extension to Algol 68 of a method originally devised for analysing Fortran IV programs. The system has been used extensively in the coordination stage of the NAG Algol 68 numerical algorithms library and we quote some results obtained from an analysis of stringent tests on these library routines.
