Abstract
A method begins by generating application system state transitions from inputted requirements and parameters. For a current implementation of generating application code, the method continues by entering a loop. The loop begins by generating a current intermediate result based on a previous implementation and in accordance with current application code development factors. The loop continues by generating at least one test case based on the one or more of the application system state transitions. The loop continues by testing the current intermediate result in accordance with the at least one test case. When the testing is unfavorable, the loop continues by modifying one or more of: the one or more of the plurality of application system state transitions, the one or more of the parameters, and the one or more implementation tools. The loop then continues by repeating the loop using the modified current application code development factors.
