Abstract

Proofs of program correctness tend to be long and tedious, whereas testing, though useful in detecting errors, usually does not guarantee correctness. This paper introduces a technique whereby test data can be used in proving program correctness. In addition to simplifying the process of providing correctness, this method simplifies the process of providing accurate specification for a program. The applicability of this technique to procedures and recursive programs is demonstrated.
