Generating suggestions for initial program investigation using Dynamic Analysis
Muhammad Kamran, Mubashir Ali, Adeel Rafi Ahmed · 2017
The process of building an understanding of the existing system is time consuming and takes a big portion of the allocated time for a maintenance task. Numerous efforts have been made to reduce the time consumed in the program comprehension process by providing support to the programmer during this phase. The segments of the program that can be attractive from the comprehension viewpoint must be brought into the notice of the programmer. The key contribution of this paper is a heuristic approach that can aid the programmer by automatically suggesting the classes that are potentially interesting for the initial stages of the program comprehension process.
