Lightweight utilities to assist model writing and model-based testing activities using the TLA+ ecosystem.

What is this project?

A collection of cli utilities to reduce leg-work when developing TLA+ models, running model checkers, and doing model-based testing. The utilities are also intended to act as building blocks for tool development in the TLA+ ecosystem.

What can it do right now?

Currently there is a cli implementing utilities:

• Run TLC model checker without side effects (runs in temporary directory and is cleaned up)
• Run TLC model checker programmatically (reads and returns json data)
• Run Apalache model checker without side effects (runs in temporary directory and is cleaned up)
• Run Apalache model checker programmatically (reads and returns json data)
• Extract traces from TLC output in Informal Trace Format format (concise and machine readable counterexample representation)

What will it do in the future?

The model-based testing capabilities developed at Informal are currently in the modelator tool and are being migrated to a multi language architecture. Please expect more utilities and more tooling soon.
