AbstractTo achieve a certain degree of confidence that a given program follows its specification, a testing phase must be included in the program development process, and also a complementary debugging phase to help locating the program's bugs. This paper presents an environment which results of the composition and integration of two basic tools: STEPS (Structural TEsting of Parallel Software), which is a testing tool, and DDBG (Distributed DeBuGger), which is a debugging tool. The two tools are presented individually as stand-alone tools, and we describe how they were combined through the use of another intermediate tool: DEIPA (Deterministic re-Execution and Interactive Program Analysis). We claim that the result achieved is a very effective testing and debugging environment.
