Abstract
At the end of a software development process, there is a need for software verification. The aim of the software verification is to assess the software product to determine conformance to its specification. There are a few methods which can be used for doing this. However, the most popular method is software testing. For software testing to be done effectively, there is a need to select proper test cases such that all aspects of the software can be tested. In this paper we describe a technique for generating test cases automatically from the formal specification of the software. We also describe a testing system based on this technique. 1.
