Six challenges in supporting end-user debugging

Joseph Ronald Ruthruff, Margaret Burnett · ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes · 2005

This paper summarizes six challenges in end-user programming that can impact the debugging efforts of end users. These challenges have been derived through our experiences and empirical investigation of interactive fault localization techniques in the spreadsheet paradigm. Our contributions reveal several insights into debugging techniques for end-user programmers, particularly fault localization techniques, that can help guide the direction of future end-user software engineering research.
