Abstract
The software development project Quest provides tools to build correct software, especially for embedded systems. It connects the CASE-tool AutoFocus to the formal development tool VSE II, and the model checker SMV. To increase quality of non-formally developed programs a test environment is realized, containing a connection to the test-case classification tool CTE.
Proving the correctness of the emergency closing system of a storm surge barrier is a running example within the project Quest.
