Abstract

A computer-implemented method for performing a test for a program code. The method includes the following steps: providing a modified program code, which includes the program code to be tested and at least one code segment, the at least one code segment monitoring an execution sequence of execution segments, and the code segment being developed to induce a program termination when an impermissible execution sequence is detected; performing a fuzz test for the modified program code; signaling a program termination when an impermissible execution sequence is detected.
