Generating JML Specifications from UML State Diagrams

We describe our work on the prototype AutoJML tool which automatically derives JML (Java Modelling Language) specifications from UML state diagrams. UML is widely used for modelling Object-Oriented systems on an abstract level. It should be possible to test whether concrete program code actually implements a UML model. The generated JML specifications can be used for this. There exist tools to verify whether Java code conforms to a JML specification.
