N.N. Samarin

The article proposes a method of phasing-testing programs for parsing using the PolyTracker tool. During the research, types of parsers are considered and their disadvantages are revealed. The proposed method eliminates the identified drawbacks, increasing code coverage and leveling the problem of state explosion.
