Software fault detection using program patterns
Ko-Li Cheng, Ching-Pao Chang, Chih‐Ping Chu · 2011
Effective detection of software faults is an important activity of software development process. The main difficulty of detecting software fault is finding faults in a large and complex software system. In this paper, we propose an approach that applies program patterns to detect and locate software fault so that programmer can fix bug and increase software quality. The advantage of the proposed approach is that the defect-prone code segments can be detected. To facilitate the programmer to detect program bugs, this approach also includes a Graphic User Interface to locate the defect-prone code segments.
