This report focuses on the execution of multithreaded programs and finding bugs and errors in those programs. Testing is done to determine if the code written runs correctly or not. The report also covers comparison of traditional testing tools with the new and efficient systematic testing tool called CHESS. The repost explains in detail about the testing technique of CHESS including how it identifies and handles bugs in multithreaded programs. The various experiments performed using different outputs have also been discussed and their respective results have also been shown in order to determine the behavior of CHESS tool when it is provided random inputs. Using this input did not lead to non-deterministic test and the execution time increases exponentially.Keywords
