Monitoring and programming languages

Cyrille Artho Domain-Specific Languages with Scala, and model-based testing as an example Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) are often classified into external and internal DSLs. An external DSL is a stand-alone language with its own parser. An internal DSL is an extension of an existing programming language, the host language, offering the user of the DSL domain-specific constructs as well as the constructs of the host language. In this presentation, we will give a brief overview of the concepts and also look at an internal DSL used for model-based testing with the tool “Modbat”.
