Context Multiple fault localization (MFL) is the act of identifying the locations of multiple faults
(more than one fault) in a faulty software program. This is known to be more complicated …

Despite being one of the most basic tasks in software development, debugging is still
performed in a mostly manual way, leading to high cost and low performance. To address …

Learning-based fault localization has been intensively studied recently. Prior studies have
shown that traditional Learning-to-Rank techniques can help precisely diagnose fault …

Coverage-based fault localization has been extensively studied in the literature due to its
effectiveness and lightweightness for real-world systems. However, existing techniques …

Automated Program Repair (APR) is one of the most recent advances in automated
debugging, and can directly fix buggy programs with minimal human intervention. Although …

With the advantages of flexible scalability and fast delivery, microservice has become a
popular software architecture in the modern IT industry. However, the explosion in the …

A large body of research efforts have been dedicated to automated software debugging,
including both automated fault localization and program repair. However, existing fault …

Localizing failure-inducing code is essential for software debugging. Manual fault
localization can be quite tedious, error-prone, and time-consuming. Therefore, a huge body …

Spectrum-based fault localization (SBFL) techniques are widely studied and have been
evaluated to be effective in locating faults. Recent studies also showed that developers from …

Many projects often receive more bug reports than what they can handle. To help debug and
close bug reports, a number of bug localization techniques have been proposed. These …
