Model checking and simulation are powerful techniques for developing and verifying the design of reactive systems. Here we propose the use of a complementary technique – automated theory formation. In particular, we report on an experiment in which we used a general purpose automated theory formation tool, HR, to explore properties of a model written in Promela. Our use of HR is constrained by meta-knowledge about the model that is relevant to hazard analysis. Moreover, we argue that such meta-knowledge will enable us to explore how safety properties could be violated.
