Abstract :
The authors describe tools and methods developed and under development at the Lockheed Artificial Intelligence Center. Particular attention is given to the EVA (expert system validation associate), which consists of a set of tools which check for nonredundancy, consistency, correctness, and completeness of KBSs. These tools, among them EVA´s automatic test case generator, are also applicable to the validation and testing of an integrated network of KBSs, the component KBSs in the network, and interfaces between connected KBSs
