Automated program repair (in short, APR) has been attracting much attention. A variety of APR techniques have been proposed, and they have been evaluated with actual bugs in open source software. Currently, the authors are trying to introduce APR techniques to industrial software development (in short, ISD) to reduce development cost drastically. However, at this moment, there are no studies that report evaluations of APR techniques on ISD. In this paper, we report our ongoing application of APR techniques to ISD and discuss some barriers that we found on the application.
