Abstract: Formal methods can be applied with different levels of rigor. The more rigorously used, the more confidence is obtained in a formal model of a computer system. However, rigorous development using formal verification requires skilled personnel and is costly. Based on our experience of introducing formal specification to some European industrial companies, e.g. British Aerospace [7] and Aerospatiale [3], we believe that a less rigorous approach using validation by testing is a complement to...
