Abstract

Satisfiability Modulo Theories is about checking the satisfiability of logical formulas over one or more theories. We provide an appetizer of SMT solving, illustrate an application for test-case generation based on dynamic symbolic execution and summarize an array of existing applications, enabling features, challenges and future directions.
