| 3 | 7 | Andrei Tatarnikov | The constraint solver subsystem is aimed to provide the possibility to automatically generate test cases based on specified constraints. A constraint is represented by a set of limitations for input values. The solver finds values of input variables which will violate the limitations if there are any. |

| 5 | 8 | Andrei Tatarnikov | The subsystem uses a third-party SMT solver as an engine (in the current version, we use the Z3 solver by Microsoft Research). SMT solvers use a special functional language to specify constraints. The subsystem generates constructions in the SMT language and uses the engine to process them and produce the results (find values of unknown input variables). |

| 7 | 8 | Andrei Tatarnikov | We use language-independent syntax trees to represent constraints. These trees then are processed to generate a representation that can be understood by a particular SMT solver. The syntax tree contains the following node types: |
