The present invention discloses a method of developing a software system. The method facilitates the task of checking the software system's conformity to design during development, testing, and maintenance. A design control flow graph describes how the software system is to operate. Coding of the software system proceeds with reference to the design control flow graph. The design control flow graph can also be used as a framework for the construction of a monitoring module that comprises a collection of functions for checking the coding of the software system. During development, each node in the software system executes a corresponding monitoring function of the monitoring module. The monitoring function verifies, for example, whether the node was entered from a valid predecessor node, and whether some or all variables visible to the node have permissible values.
