Abstract. This paper describes an incremental methodology of deductive verification assisted by test generation and illustrates its benefits by a set of frequent verification scenarios. We present STADY, a new integration of the concolic test generator PATHCRAWLER within the software analysis platform FRAMA-C. This new plugin treats a complete formal specification of a C program during test generation and provides the validation engineer with a helpful feedback at all stages of the specification and verification tasks.
In this area, papers like REF experimented an incremental methodology of deductive verification assisted by test generation.
