Mainstream IDEs such as Eclipse support developers in managing software projects mainly by offering static views of the source code. Such a static perspective neglects any informa...
Fault localization helps spotting faults in source code by exploiting automatically collected data. Deviating from other fault locators relying on hit spectra or test coverage inf...
Automated static analysis can identify potential source code anomalies early in the software process that could lead to field failures. However, only a small portion of static ana...
Identification of design patterns can deliver important information to designers. Therefore, automated design pattern detection (DPD) is highly desirable when it comes to underst...
A common static software bug detection technique is to use path simulation. Each execution path is simulated using symbolic variables to determine if any software errors could occ...
