Tests and Proofs

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Tests and Proofs, TAP 2016, held as part of STAF 2016, in Vienna, Austria, in July 2016. The 8 full papers, 2 short papers, and 1 tool demonstration paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. The book also contains one invited talk in full-paper length. The TAP conference promotes research in verification and formal methods that targets the interplay of proofs and testing: the advancement of techniques of each kind and their combination, with the ultimate goal of improving software and system dependability.
