We study the testing and certification of UML and OCL models as supported by the validation tool USE. We extend the available USE features by introducing a language for defining properties of desired snapshots and by showing how such snapshots are generated. Within the approach, it is possible to treat test cases and validation cases. Test cases show that snapshots having desired properties can be constructed. Validation cases show that given properties are consequences of the original UML and OCL model.
