ConTeGe
ConTeGe (short for Concurrent Test Generator) is a framework for generating sequential and concurrent unit tests. It is a research platform to build tools for finding correctness and performance problems in sequential and concurrent Java classes. In particular, ConTeGe is the basis for the following approaches:
An automatic and precise thread safety checker that found previously unknown bugs in the JDK
See thread-safe.org for details.
