Nowadays, compilers have become the fundamental infrastructures of information technology. However, compilers are also fault-prone, thus leading to unexpected behavior of programs under compilation. In this talk, we first discuss the main challenges for achieving dependable and trustworthy compilers. Thus, we demonstrate the main routines to tackle these challenges. In this talk, we also provide an overview of existing tools for verifying and testing compilers.
