%0 Journal Article %T Finding Failure Causes through Automated Testing %A Holger Cleve %A Andreas Zeller %J Computer Science %D 2000 %I arXiv %X A program fails. Under which circumstances does this failure occur? One single algorithm, the delta debugging algorithm, suffices to determine these failure-inducing circumstances. Delta debugging tests a program systematically and automatically to isolate failure-inducing circumstances such as the program input, changes to the program code, or executed statements. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/cs/0012009v1
