'''ESC/Java''' (and more recently '''ESC/Java2'''), the "Extended Static Checker for Java," is a [[programming tool]] that attempts to find common [[run-time error]]s in [[Java (programming language)|Java]] programs at [[compile time]].<ref>{{cite conference |last1=Flanagan |first1=C. |last2=Leino |first2=K.R.M. |last3=Lillibridge |first3=M. |last4=Nelson |first4=G. |author4-link=Greg Nelson (computer scientist)|last5=Saxe |first5=J.

For example, that an integer variable is greater-than-zero, or lies between the [[bounds checking|bounds of an array]]. This technique was pioneered in ESC/Java (and its predecessor, ESC/[[Modula-3]]) and can be thought of as an extended form of [[type checking]]. Extended static checking usually involves the use of an [[automated theorem proving|automated theorem prover]] and, in ESC/Java, the Simplify theorem prover was used.

The [[Radboud University Nijmegen|University of Nijmegen]]'s ''Security of Systems'' group released alpha versions of ESC/Java2, an extended version of ESC/Java that processes the [[Java Modeling Language|JML]] specification language through 2004. From 2004 to 2009, ESC/Java2 development was managed by the KindSoftware Research Group at [[University College Dublin]], which in 2009 moved to the [[IT University of Copenhagen]], and in 2012 to the [[Technical University of Denmark]]. Over the years, ESC/Java2 has gained many new features including the ability to reason with multiple [[Automated theorem prover|theorem prover]]s and integration with [[Eclipse (software)|Eclipse]].
[http://www.openjml.org/ OpenJML], the successor of ESC/Java2, is available for Java 1.8.<ref>{{cite web |url=
