  • Abstract
    Describes an industrial application of the Genevieve test generation methodology. The Genevieve approach uses formal techniques to generate test suites for specific design behaviour. The example, which is a part of the ST100 DSP, was chosen in order to highlight real life problems such as big data structures, complex control logic, and complex environments where it is difficult to determine how to drive the complete system to ensure a given behaviour in the unit under test
