Abstract

Reactis is a commercially successful testing and validation tool which is implemented almost entirely in Standard ML. Our experience using a functional language to develop a commercial product has led us to the conclusion that while functional languages have some disadvantages, in the case of Reactis the benefits of a functional language substantially outweigh the drawbacks.
