Quotations
639 ;;Quote: only testing reveals discrepancies between a model and the real situation; also errors in proofs
639 ;;Quote: Cleanroom development separates testing from software development; random test cases; should be more reliable
639 ;;Quote: reviewers can miss program flaws even though they know that flaws have been introduced
643 ;;Quote: because of multiple disciplines, information hiding occurs naturally in many engineering projects, e.g., transformers; not true for software
644 ;;Quote: a program fails because of a new input sequence; so can talk about the failure rate of software
647 ;;Quote: for statistical tests of real-time systems need to limit trajectory length by partitioning the state; periodically reinitialize the state
