Contents

• index.html: directs to the overview web page
• LICENSE.txt: specifies the license
• README.txt: this file
• results-validated/: results of validation runs
• results-verified/: results of test-generation runs and aggregated results

The folder results-validated/ contains the results from validation runs:

• *.xml.bz2: XML results from BenchExec
• *.logfiles.zip: output from tools
• *.json.gz: mapping from files names to SHA 256 hashes for the file content

The folder results-verified/ contains the results from test-generation runs and aggregated results:

• index.html: overview web page with rankings and score table
• design.css: HTML style definitions
• *.xml.bz2: XML results from BenchExec
• *.merged.xml.bz2: XML results from BenchExec, status adjusted according to the validation results
• *.logfiles.zip: output from tools
• *.json.gz: mapping from files names to SHA 256 hashes for the file content
• *.xml.bz2.table.html: HTML views on the detailed results data as generated by BenchExec’s table generator
• *.All.table.html: HTML views of the full benchmark set (all categories) for each tool
• META_*.table.html: HTML views of the benchmark set for each meta category for each tool, and over all tools
• <category>*.table.html: HTML views of the benchmark set for each category over all tools

• iZeCa0gaey.html: HTML views per tool

• quantilePlot-*: score-based quantile plots as visualization of the results
• quantilePlotShow.gp: example Gnuplot script to generate a plot

• score*: accumulated score results in various formats

The hashes of the file names (in the files *.json.gz) are useful for

• validating the exact contents of a file and
• accessing the files from the witness store.
