Perpetual Testing

Abstract

The University of Massachusetts participated with Purdue University and the University of California at Irvine (under separate contractual efforts) in a teamed research effort to advance the state-of-the-art in software testing. The University of Massachusetts has collaborated with its research partners on developing improved data flow analysis capabilities and on the development of integrated testing strategies that synergistically combine static and dynamic approaches. This effort is part of the DARPA Evolutionary Design of Complex Software (EDCS) Program. The EDCS project made important progress along numerous fronts. Research activity was centered on: Finite State Verification; Software Process Technology; Self-Adaptive Software; Distributed Object Technology. In addition, there was considerable activity aimed at dissemination, publication, and student training.
