Abstract
Testing is a validation activity used to check the system's correctness with respect to the specification. In this context,test based on refusals is studied in theory and tools are effectively constructed. This paper addresses,a formal testing based on stochastic refusals graphs (SRG) in order to test stochastic system represented by maximality-based labeled stochastic transition systems (MLSTS). First, we propose a framework to generate SRGs from MLSTSs. Second,we present a new technique to generate automatically a canonical tester from stochastic refusal graph and conformance relation confSRG. Finally, implementation is proposed and the application of our approach is shown by an example.
