This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed and peer-reviewed outcome
of the Formal Methods and Testing (FORTEST) network - formed as a
network established under UK EPSRC funding that investigated the
relationships between formal (and semi-formal) methods and software
testing - now being a subject group of two BCS Special Interest Groups:
Formal Aspects of Computing Science (BCS FACS) and Special Interest
Group in Software Testing (BCS SIGIST).
Each of the 12 chapters in this book describes a way in which the study
of formal methods and software testing can be combined in a manner that
brings the benefits of formal methods (e.g., precision, clarity,
provability) with the advantages of testing (e.g., scalability,
generality, applicability).
