43. RADAR: A Tool for Debugging Regression Problems in C/C++ Software.

Author

Pastore, Fabrizio, Mariani, Leonardo, and Goffi, Alberto

Subjects
DEBUGGING, COMPUTER software, COMPUTER software development, SOFTWARE engineering, SOFTWARE architecture
Abstract

Multiple tools can assist developers when debugging programs, but only a few solutions specifically target the common case of regression failures, to provide a more focused and effective support to debugging. In this paper we present RADAR, a tool that combines change identification and dynamic analysis to automatically explain regression problems with a list of suspicious differences in the behavior of the base and upgraded version of a program. The output produced by the tool is particularly beneficial to understand why an application failed. A demo video is available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMGUgALG-yE [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

44. MASH: A Tool for End-User Plug-In Composition.

Abstract

Most of the modern Integrated Development Environments are developed with plug-in based architectures that can be extended with additional functionalities and plug-ins, according to user needs. However, extending an IDE is still a possibility restricted to developers with deep knowledge about the specific development environment and its architecture. In this paper we present MASH, a tool that eases the programming of Integrated Development Environments. The tool supports the definition of workflows that can be quickly designed to integrate functionalities offered by multiple plugins, without the need of knowing anything about the internal architecture of the IDE. Workflows can be easily reshaped every time an analysis must be modified, without the need of producing Java code and deploying components in the IDE. Early results suggest that this approach can effectively facilitate programming of IDEs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

45. Supporting plug-in mashes to ease tool integration.

Author

Mariani, Leonardo and Pastore, Fabrizio

Abstract

The majority of IDEs implement a concept of plug-in that nicely supports the integration of tools within the IDEs. Plug-ins dramatically simplify the structural integration of multiple tools, but provide little support to the design of the dynamic of the integration, which must be entirely coded by programmers from plug-ins' API. Manually integrating plug-ins is costly, complex and requires a deep understanding of the underlying environment. The implementation of tools as plug-ins and the integration of the results produced by different plug-ins are still difficult, expensive and error-prone activities. This paper presents the concepts of Task Based Plug-in (TB-plug-in) and workflow of TB-plug-ins. In our vision, IDE users must be able to execute plug-ins and integrate their results by designing workflows that can be persisted, executed and re-used in other workflows. We validated our idea by refactoring a set of Eclipse plugins for log-file analysis into TB-plug-ins, and designing several workflows that integrate plug-in tasks. We compared the effort necessary to implement these analyses from plugins with the effort necessary to design the workflows from TB-plug-ins. We discovered that workflows can be easily designed with little knowledge about the IDE and the plug-ins' API, save significant effort otherwise devoted to the implementation of additional plug-ins and glue-code, and produce analyses that can be quickly modified and reused.

46. A Toolset for Automated Failure Analysis.

Author

Subjects
FAILURE analysis, SOFTWARE failures, SOFTWARE localization, SOFTWARE engineering, CLIENT/SERVER computing
Abstract

Classic fault localization techniques can automatically provide information about the suspicious code blocks that are likely responsible for observed failures. This information is useful, but not sufficient to completely understand the causes of failing executions, which still require further (time-consuming) investigations to be exactly identified. A useful and comprehensive source of information is frequently given by the set of unexpected events that have been observed during failures. Sequences of unexpected events are usually simple to be interpret, and testers can guess the expected correct sequences of events from the faulty sequences. In this paper, we present a tool that automatically identifies anomalous events that likely caused failures, filters the possible false positives, and presents the resulting data by building views that show chains of cause-effect relations, i.e., views that show when anomalous events are caused by other anomalous events. The use of the technique to investigate a fault in the Tomcat application server is also presented in the paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
