Exterminating Bugs via Collective Information Recycling

George Candea

End-user software is executed billions of times daily, but the corresponding execution details (“by-products”) are discarded. We hypothesize that, if suitably captured and aggregated, these by-products could substantially speed up the process of testing pr ...

Efficient Testing of Recovery Code Using Fault Injection

George Candea, Paul Dan Marinescu

A critical part of developing a reliable software system is testing its recovery code. This code is traditionally difficult to test in the lab, and, in the field, it rarely gets to run; yet, when it does run, it must execute flawlessly in order to recover ...

Debugging by lastChange

Claude Petitpierre, Salman Mirghasemi

Developers often seek the origins of wrong values they see in their debugger. Their search must be backwards in time: the code causing the wrong value executed before the wrong value appeared. Searching with breakpoint- or log- based debuggers demands pers ...

Online Testing of Federated and Heterogeneous Distributed Systems

Dejan Novakovic, Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Vojin Jovanovic

DiCE is a system for online testing of federated and heterogeneous distributed systems. We have built a prototype of DiCE and integrated it with a BGP router. DiCE quickly detects three important classes of faults, resulting from configuration mistakes, po ...

Improving API Documentation for Java-like Languages

Gilles Dubochet, Donna Malayeri

The Javadoc paradigm for displaying API documentation to users is quite popular, with similar variants existing for many mainstream languages. However, two user interface design properties of Javadoc may reduce its utility when displaying documentation for ...

Automated Software Testing as a Service (TaaS)

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Stefan Bucur

This paper makes the case for TaaS - automated software testing as a cloud-based service. We present three kinds of TaaS: (1) a public certification service, akin to Underwriters Labs, that independently assesses the reliability, safety, and security of so ...

On Test Generation through Programming in UDITA

Viktor Kuncak, Tihomir Gvero, Milos Gligoric

We present an approach for describing tests using non-deterministic test generation programs. To write test generation programs, we introduce UDITA, a Java-based language with non-deterministic choice operators and an interface for generating linked struct ...

Programming language abstractions for mobile code

Stéphane Micheloud

Scala is a general-purpose programming language developed at EPFL. It combines the most important concepts found in object-oriented and functional languages. Scala is a statically typed language; in particular it features an advanced type system and suppor ...

Dimensionality of Dialogue Act Tagsets: An Empirical Analysis of Large Corpora

Andrei Popescu-Belis

This article compares one-dimensional and multi-dimensional dialogue act tagsets used for automatic labeling of utterances. The influence of tagset dimensionality on tagging accuracy is first discussed theoretically, then based on empirical data from human ...

Implications of NbTi short-sample test results and analysis for the ITER poloidal field conductor insert (PFCI)

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Marina Ricci

As the test of the PFC1 is foreseen in 2006 at JAERI Naka, Japan, it is essential to consider in detail the lessons learned from the short NbTi sample tests, as well as the issues left open after them, in order to develop a suitable test program of the PFC ...
