We show how formal specifications can be integrated into one of the current pragmatic object-oriented software development methods. Jacobson's "object-oriented software engineering" process is combined with object-oriented algebraic specifications by extending object and interaction diagrams with formal annotations. The specifications are based on Meseguer's rewriting logic and are written in a meta-level extension of the language Maude by process expressions. As a result any such diagram can be associated with a formal specification, proof obligations ensuring invariant properties can be automatically generated, and the refinement relations between documents at different abstraction levels can be formally stated and proved.
