Abstract

Testing is a critical component of the software development process and is required to ensure the reliability, robustness and usability of software. Tools that systematically aid in the testing process are crucial to the development of reliable software. This paper describes a code-based testing and analysis tool for object-oriented software. TATOO provides a systematic approach to testing tailored towards object behavior, and particularly for class integration testing. The underlying program analysis subsystem exploits combined points-to and escape analysis developed for compiler optimization to address the software testing issues.
