Tutorial: Contracts for components
The progress of component-based development requires a standard
to specify the precise properties of components. The techniques
of Design by Contract, originally developed for O-O classes,
are useful, with appropriate adaptations, for components of
other kinds too. This presentation will discuss the issues
involved and describe the application of contract-based
specification, documentation and testing techniques
to the world of component-based development.
