Overview:

jPredictor is a tool for detecting concurrency errors in Java programs. The Java program is instrumented to emit property-relevant events at runtime and then executed. The resulting execution trace is collected and analyzed by jPredictor, which extracts a causality relation sliced using static analysis and refined with lock-atomicity information. The resulting abstract model, a hybrid of a partial order and atomic blocks, is then exhaustively analyzed against the property and errors with counter-examples are reported to the user. Thus, jPredictor can "Predict" errors that did not happen in the observed execution, but which could have happened under a different thread scheduling. The analysis technique employed in jPredictor is fully automatic, generic (works for any trace property), sound (produces no false alarms) but it is incomplete (may miss errors).
