yinyang 0.1.2

A fuzzing framework for SMT solvers

yinyang

A fuzzing framework for SMT solvers. Given a set of seed SMT formulas, yinyang generates mutant formulas to stress-test SMT solvers. yinyang can be used to robustify SMT solvers. It already found 1,500+ bugs in the two state-of-the-art SMT solvers Z3 and CVC4.

Installation

To install a stable version of yinyang use:

pip3 install yinyang

To install the most recent version, check out the repository:

git clone https://github.com/testsmt/yinyang.git                        
pip3 install antlr4-python3-runtime==4.9.2                                   

Note that you may want to add yinyang/bin to your PATH, for running yinyang conveniently without prefix.

Usage

1. Get SMT-LIB 2 benchmarks. Edit scripts/SMT-LIB-clone.sh to select the logics for testing. Run ./scripts/SMT-LIB-clone.sh to download the corresponding SMT-LIB 2 benchmarks. Alternatively, you can download benchmarks directly from the SMT-LIB website or supply your own benchmarks.

2. Get and build SMT solvers for testing. Install two or more SMT solvers that support the SMT-LIB 2 format. You may find it convenient to add them to your PATH.

3. Run yinyang on the benchmarks e.g. with Z3 and CVC4.

typefuzz "z3 model_validate=true;cvc4 --check-models -m -i -q" benchmarks 

yinyang will by default randomly select formulas from the folder ./benchmarks and generate 300 mutants per seed formula. If a bug has been found, the bug trigger is stored in ./bugs. yinyang will run in an infinite loop. You can use the shortcut CTRL+C to terminate yinyang manually.
