Tests and Proofs: 18th International Conference, TAP 2024, Milan, Italy, September 9–10, 2024, Proceedings

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Tests and Proofs, TAP 2024. TAP 2024 took place in Milan, Italy, on September 9 and 10, 2024 as part of the Formal Methods symposium (FM 2024), which included four more co-located conferences besides TAP: FMICS (Formal Methods in Industrial Critical Systems), LOPSTR (In ternational Symposium on Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation), PPDP (International Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Pro gramming), and FACS (International Conference on Formal Aspects of Compo nent Software. The 7 full papers together with 1 short paper included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 14 submissions. TAP’s scope encompasses many aspects of verification technology, including foundational work, tool development, and empirical research.
