    Abstract: A system and method for testing a computer program using a computer system includes a plurality of computer systems communicating using a network. An interface parser module defines at least one program interface in a program file of a specified program. A fuzzer module reads the program file and identifies the program interfaces. An attack data generator module attacks the program interfaces and communicates with the fuzzer, and the fuzzer determines vulnerabilities in the specified program. A recorder records the attacking procedure. A verifier verifies remedies for vulnerabilities by replaying the attacking procedure of the program interface and determining vulnerabilities. A service status detective module restarts the specified program when the specified program ceases to operate or crashes.
