Abstract

This research has implemented a prototype of a decision table generation tool from the specification (the formal specification) described in a formal specification language. This paper uses the formal specification description language VDM++ which is the lightweight formal methods VDM (Vienna Development Method) to write the formal specification. We applied some general specifications to the prototype, in order to evaluate its usefulness. As a result, the prototype has improved the efficiency in test design with formal methods.
