Depending on the formality of the models, they can also be used for verification. Once the models are available model-based test case generation and verification can be seen as "push-button solutions." However, making the models is often perceived by practitioners as being extremely difficult, error prone, and overall daunting. This paper outlines an approach for generating models out of observations gathered while a system is operating. After refining the models with moderate effort, they can be used for verification and test case generation. The approach is illustrated with a concrete system from the safety and security domain. abstract_translated_lang: eng date: 2009 date_type: published id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00010095 portal_cluster_id: p-ddcs09 portal_order: 01 ppn_swb: 1384041885 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-opus-100955 language: eng bibsort: KANSTRENTEOBSERVATIO2009 full_text_status: public series: International Workshop on the Design of Dependable Critical Systems volume: 1 citation: Kanstrén, Teemu ; Piel, Eric ; Gonzalez, Alberto ; Gross, Hans-Gerhard (2009) Observation-Based Modeling for Testing and Verifying Highly Dependable Systems – A Practitioner’s Approach.
