Software Verification Engine
Automated Testing and Formal Verification System
Automated system verifying software correctness through testing and formal methods
Purpose
Automated system verifying software correctness through testing and formal methods
Context
Child of L2-CDH-SW
Principles
- ▸Unit testing validates individual functions against specifications
- ▸Integration testing verifies inter-component communication and data flow
- ▸Formal verification proves safety-critical properties mathematically
- ▸Fault injection testing validates software robustness against simulated failures
Typical implementations
- ▸NASA IV&V (Independent Verification and Validation) processes
- ▸SPARK Ada formal verification for safety-critical software
- ▸Google OSS-Fuzz continuous fuzzing for software robustness
Lunar considerations
- ▸Must verify AI-generated code updates that have no human reviewer
- ▸Test coverage must be comprehensive enough to validate autonomous updates
- ▸Testing resources (compute time) constrained by power budget
