Software fault localization, the act of identifying the locations of faults in a program, is widely
recognized to be one of the most tedious, time consuming, and expensive-yet equally critical …

This chapter describes traditional and intuitive fault localization techniques, including
program logging, assertions, breakpoints, and profiling. Many advanced fault localization …

Context: Fault localization is among the most expensive tasks in software development.
Spectrum-based fault localization (SFL) techniques seek to pinpoint faulty program elements …

Spectrum-based fault localization (SFL) correlates a system's components with observed
failures. By reasoning about coverage, SFL allows for a lightweight way of pinpointing faults …

摘要程序源代码中的缺陷是导致软件不可靠的一个主要原因. 软件错误自动定位技术通过计算机
分析程序源代码或执行过程中产生的运行状态, 检测程序中的异常并将其独立出来作为需要 …

Debugging—the process of locating and fixing abnormal behavior in software—is often cited
as one of the most costly and unpredictable phases of developing software. It is therefore …
