Abstract

Testing takes much of the time of the software development process, so several efforts have been devoted to automate it. We present here a tool that is able to generate test cases for Maude functional modules, and check their correctness with respect to a given specification or select a subset of these test cases to be checked by the user by using different strategies. Since these processes are very expensive we also present different trusting techniques to ease them.
