Abstract

A system and method automatically ensures consistency among a design model, an interface specification and one or more tests that test the design model. The system may include a broker adapted to construct the interface specification. The interface specification identifies the interface of the design model, e.g., its external inputs, external outputs, and initialization settings. It may also identify the outputs, inputs, and initialization setting objects of the tests. Proposed changes to any one of the design model's interface, the interface specification and the interfaces of the tests may be captured by the broker, and applied to the other two.
