Despite significant recent advances, the effectiveness of symbolic execution is limited when used to test complex, real-world software. One of the main scalability challenges is related to constraint solv- ing: large applications and long exploration paths lead to complex constraints, often involving big arrays indexed by symbolic expres- sions. In this paper, we propose a set of semantics-preserving trans- formations for array operations that take advantage of contextual information collected during symbolic execution. Our transforma- tions lead to simpler encodings and hence better performance in constraint solving. The results we obtain are encouraging: we show, through an extensive experimental analysis, that our transforma- tions help ...
