This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Security and Trust Management, STM 2010, held in Athens, Greece, in September 2010.
The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. Focusing on high-quality original unpublished research, case studies, and implementation experiences, STM 2010 encouraged submissions discussing the application and deployment of security technologies in practice.

Testing is the primary hardware and software verification technique used by industry today. Usually, it is ad hoc, error prone, and very expensive. In recent years, however, many attempts have been made to develop more sophisticated formal testing methods. This coherent book provides an in-depth assessment of this emerging field, focusing on formal testing of reactive systems.

This book is based on a seminar held in Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in January 2004. It presents 19 carefully reviewed and revised lectures given at the seminar in a well-balanced way ensuring competent complementary coverage of all relevant aspects. An appendix provides a glossary for model-based testing and basics on finite state machines and on labelled transition systems. The lectures are presented in topical sections on testing of finite state machines, testing of labelled transition systems, model-based test case generation, tools and case studies, standardized test notation and execution architectures, and beyond testing.
