Yes :) But more good is to represent FSM as table or diagram - then you
can easy find right/wrong transitions/states. Any information can be
represented in different forms but only some of them are good for human ;)
Btw, there are a lot of visual tools to work with FSMs, to develop them
and tests as well as to translate them to some language.
