ABSTRACT

Your program fails. What is the cause of this failure? In this demo, we present two delta debugging plug-ins for the Eclipse environment which isolate failure causes in the program history and in the program's execution.

SIGSOFT '06/FSE-14: Proceedings of the 14th ACM SIGSOFT international symposium on Foundations of software engineering

Testing and code editing are interleaved activities during program development. When tests fail unexpectedly, the changes that caused the failure(s) are not always easy to find. We explore how change classification can focus programmer attention on ...
