Abstract

There is significant room for improving users' experiences with model checking tools. An error trace produced by a model checker can be lengthy and is indicative of a symptom of an error. As a result, users can spend considerable time examining an error trace in order to understand the cause of the error. Moreover, even state-of-the-art model checkers provide an experience akin to that provided by parsers before syntactic error recovery was invented: they report a single error trace per run. The user has to fix the error and run the model checker again to find more error traces.
