Abstract

We present work we are engaged in to develop symbolic test generation techniques and apply those techniques to testing of smart card applications. Beginning with (1) a system specification and (2) a test purpose expressed as symbolic labelled-transition-systems, we automatically derive tests to check conformance of an implementation to the behaviors of the specification selected by the test purpose. We present an example taken from a case-study we are developing based on the application of these techniques to the CEPS e-purse specifications.

Supported in part by DYADE action FormalCard, a joint project of INRIA and Bull/CP-8.
