| Abstract: | UNISEX is a UNIX-based symbolic executor for Pascal. The UNISEX system provides an environment for both testing and formally verifying Pascal programs. The system supports a large subset of Pascal, runs on UNIX and provides the user with a variety of debugging features to help in the difficult task of program validation. This paper contains a brief introduction to symbolic execution, followed by an overview of the features of UNISEX, a discussion of the UNISEX Pascal language, and some of the implementation details for the UNISEX system. Finally, some of the problems encountered when designing and implementing the system are discussed as well as future directions. |
