A Formal Approach to Network/Distributed Systems Complex Testing

Deployment of network/distributed systems sets high requirements for procedures, tools and approaches for the complex testing of these systems. This work provides a survey of testing activities with regard to these systems based on standards and actual practices for both software-based and distribution (network) aspects. On the basis of this survey, we determine formal testing procedures/processes which cover these aspects, but which are not contrary to both aspects. The next step, based on the analysis of the implementation phase of System Development Life Cycle, determines a formal model for these processes

A Formal Approach to Distributed System Security Test Generation

Deployment of distributed systems sets high requirements for procedures for the security testing of these systems. This work introduces: (1) a list of typical threats based on standards and actual practices; (2) an extended six-layered model for test generation mission on the basis of technical specifications and end-user requirements. Based on the list of typical threats and the multilayer model, we describe a formal approach to the automated design and generation of security mechanisms checklists for complex distributed systems.
