Verification mechanism for lightweight componenent-based environment based on IoC container

This paper presents a concept of component verification framework dedicated to a particular lightweight component environment. The starting point of the paper constitutes a discussion about the significance of verification of syntax inconsistencies in software development. Next, the need of verification in serviceoriented and component-based systems is presented, and various approaches of verification in existing component environments are explained. The main part of the paper introduces a concept of functional integrity of component-based systems that utilize verification mechanisms which check consistency between components. The proposed solution is built on a fine-grained component environment (close to classes similarly to the Spring Framework) realized in the AgE platform. Selected technical aspects of framework design illustrate the considerations of the paper.
