CHESS (Composition with Guarantees for High-integrity Embedded Software Components Assembly) tool is a open source software project that supports the design phases of safety-critical systems, combining the model-driven architecture design with formal methods.
CHESS enable the interaction with external backend tools to perform different analysis. These external tools include OCRA for contract-based analysis, nuXmv for model checking, xSAP for model-based safety analysis. They run in background or remotely via OSLC and the user does not interact with them directly.
