Translation validation can be used even with a compiler that sometimes generates incorrect code, as long as this incorrect does not manifest itself for a given program. Depending on the input program the translation validation can fail (because the generated code is wrong or the translation validation technique is too weak to show correctness).
The definition of M&S validation focuses on the accuracy with which the M&S represents the real-world intended use(s). Determining the degree of M&S accuracy is required because all M&S are approximations of reality, and it is usually critical to determine if the degree of approximation is acceptable for the intended use(s).
Static verification is the process of checking that software meets requirements by inspecting the code before it runs. For example: Code conventions verification; Bad practices (anti-pattern) detection; Software metrics calculation; Formal verification
The SPARK programming language provides a toolset which enables software development with formal verification and is used in several high-integrity systems. [citation needed] The CompCert C compiler is a formally verified C compiler implementing the majority of ISO C. [23] [24]
Converting a proof in this way is called program extraction. Hoare logic is a specific formal system for reasoning rigorously about the correctness of computer programs. [3] It uses axiomatic techniques to define programming language semantics and argue about the correctness of programs through assertions known as Hoare triples.
Verification is intended to check that a product, service, or system meets a set of design specifications. [6] [7] In the development phase, verification procedures involve performing special tests to model or simulate a portion, or the entirety, of a product, service, or system, then performing a review or analysis of the modeling results.

C, C++ — — — — — Multi-language tool for software verification. Applications range from coding rule validation, to automatic generation of testcases, to the proof of absence of run-time errors or generation of counterexamples, and to the specification of code matchers and rewriters based both syntactic and semantic conditions.
