Preface
This volume contains the research papers, invited papers, and abstracts of tutorials presented at the Second International Conference on Tests and Proofs (TAP 2008) held April 9–11, 2008 in Prato, Italy. TAP was the second conference devoted to the convergence of proofs and tests. It combines ideas from both areas for the advancement of software quality. To prove the correctness of a program is to demonstrate, through impeccable mathematical techniques, that it has no bugs; to test a program is to run it with the expectation of discovering bugs.
