A system and method for inspecting system state during testing includes determining one or more inspection modules for examining respective portions of a state of the system using a test inspector, initializing each of the inspection modules, saving the respective portions of the state of the system using the inspection modules, executing a test of the system, checking the respective portions of the state of the system using the inspection modules, and repeating the saving, executing, and checking for each additional test of the system. The test inspector is executed by one or more processors of the system. In some examples, saving a first one of the respective portions of the state of the system includes determining state variables and corresponding values associated with the first respective portion of the state of the system and saving the state variables and corresponding values in a state repository.
