Abstract

Although a lot of research has been done in software testing, how to test concurrent programs effectively has not received much attention. Two early papers on testing concurrent programs were written by P. Brinch Hansen (see Software-Practice and Experience, vol.8, p.145-50 and p.721-9 (1989)) K.C. Tai's paper (1985) addressed several issues on testing concurrent programs and started the work on deterministic execution testing and debugging of concurrent programs. These and other research results on testing concurrent programs are briefly examined. The following approaches to testing concurrent programs are discussed: single execution testing, multiple execution testing, and deterministic execution testing. Problems in deterministic execution testing and debugging of concurrent programs are examined. >
