Chemical reaction networks (CRNs) are an emerging distributed computational paradigm where programs are encoded as a set of abstract chemical reactions. CRNs can be compiled into DNA strands which perform the computations in vitro, creating a foundation for intelligent nanodevices. Recent research proposed a software testing framework to ensure the correctness of these programs in simulation, however, it relies on existing program specifications. In practice, specifications are often lacking and when they do exist, transforming them into test cases is time-intensive and can be error prone. In this work, we propose an inference technique called ChemFlow which extracts 3 types of invariants from an existing CRN model. The extracted invariants can then be used for test generation or model validation against program implementations. We applied ChemFlow to 13 CRN programs ranging from toy examples to real biological models with hundreds of reactions. We find that the invariants provide strong fault detection and often exhibit less flakiness than specification derived tests. In the biological models we showed invariants to developers and they confirmed that many of these point to parts of the model that are biologically incorrect or incomplete suggesting we can use ChemFlow to improve model quality for existing programs.
