Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for resolving nondeterminism in a behavior model of a computing system under test (SUT). In some implementations, actions include: receiving a behavior model relating to a SUT, the behavior model including two or more nondeterministic transitions; obtaining trace data associated with execution of the SUT across the two or more nondeterministic transitions; determining based on the trace data, two or more transition guards that resolve nondeterminism of the two or more nondeterministic transitions; and associating the two or more transition guards with the two or more nondeterministic transitions to provide an extended behavior model.
