GridTPT: a distributed platform for Theorem Prover Testing
Résumé
Programming provers is a complex task; completeness or even soundness may often be broken by apparently harmless bugs. A good testing platform can contribute in detecting problems early and helping development. This paper presents the distributed platform for testing the veriT SMT solver. Its features are fairly standard, but it allows to easily distribute the task in a cluster. We plan to distribute this platform as an open source tool for the community of developers of automated theorem provers. This presentation to PAAR2010 would provide the opportunity to discuss the need for such a tool and the necessary features in a broader context. We would like to extract a requirement specification from this discussion, that would be useful to get dedicated implementation resources for distribution, maintenance and future development of the tool.
