Abstract

We propose a novel notion of data-flow coverage for testing declarative programs. Moreover, we extend an automatic test-case generator such that it can achieve data-flow coverage. The coverage information is obtained by instrumenting a program such that it collects coverage information during its execution. Finally, we show the benefits of data-flow based testing for a couple of example applications.
