Abstract: This paper introduces an approach for testing stochastic systems based on stochastic refusals graphs (SRGs). Those systems are modelled by maximality-based labelled stochastic transition systems (MLSTSs). This model characterises the stochastic temporal properties of concurrent systems, under the assumption of arbitrarily distributed durations of actions. In this paper, we propose a theory and a framework for the determinisation of MLSTS and a definition of canonical tester. This theory is applied on stochastic process algebra S-LOTOS. At the end, this theory will be illustrated by three case studies; temperature controller of plane reactor, alternating bit protocol and cell production.
