Equivalent of Microsoft Application Verifier for managed applications

Do you know of any equivalent of Microsoft Application Verifier for managed applications?

Thanks!

  • It turns out that there are cases where this functionality is required for managed code.

    Unfortunately I'm in one of those situations right now.

    Have a look at Microsoft Research CHESS: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/CHESS/

    And the Channel 9 video demo, the developers of the tool mention that the behaviour of the tool is very similar to appverifier and that it can test managed code: http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/Going+Deep/CHESS-An-Automated-Concurrency-Testing-Tool/
