verification - Test suite for automatic bug finding -


for many kinds of hard computational problems e.g. propositional satisfiability, theorem proving, traveling salesman etc., there exists extensive test suite can used evaluating performance of program attempts solve problem.

does such thing exist automatic bug finding, i.e. collection of programs or code fragments containing known bugs of kind automatically detected? assume e.g. coverity must have such thing internal use, google search doesn't seem show publicly available.

i don't think such suite exists. glaring question "standard" suite is, language written in?

for c, can @ safecode's test suite, here. safecode meant detect these bugs @ runtime, "perfect" static analysis tool should able detect them statically.

a more comprehensive, , more importantly, static analysis tool, frama-c. see paper entitled "test-driving static analysis tools in search of c code vulnerabilities". paper describes need test suite ask for. links test suite , effectiveness among common analyzers. frama-c might have own benchmarks, can download source , check.
