Towards Automatically Pruning Logging Code with Coding Agents: How Far Are We?
He Yang Yuan, Haonan Zhang, Xin Wang +4
Logging code supports debugging, monitoring, and software maintenance, but excessive logging can add noise, impose runtime overhead, and obscure diagnostic information. While prior…
TAILOR: Template-Preserving Augmentation for Long-Tailed Log Parsing
Sepideh Hodaeian, Zhenhao Li, An Ran Chen
Log parsing is essential for system log analysis because it supports tasks such as debugging, monitoring, and anomaly detection by transforming unstructured log messages into struc…
Bridging Behavior and Implementation: Automated Java Glue Code Generation for Behavior-Driven Development
Xinyu Shi, Zhou Yang, An Ran Chen
Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) helps technical and non-technical stakeholders share a common understanding of software requirements through natural-language scenarios. Glue code…
Towards Secure Logging: Characterizing and Benchmarking Logging Code Security Issues with LLMs
He Yang Yuan, Xin Wang, Kundi Yao +3
Logging code plays an important role in software systems by recording key events and behaviors, which are essential for debugging and monitoring. However, insecure logging practice…
Can Large Language Models Reason About Complex Execution Paths? An Empirical Study on Python
Wenhan Wang, Kaibo Liu, Zeyu Sun +4
Execution path reasoning is a key step towards program semantics understanding. It is crucial for generating test cases that cover certain branches/paths, or detecting bugs that ar…
Studying the Impact of Early Test Termination Due to Assertion Failure on Code Coverage and Spectrum-based Fault Localization
Md. Ashraf Uddin, Shaowei Wang, An Ran Chen +3
An assertion is commonly used to validate the expected programs behavior (e.g., if the returned value of a method equals an expected value) in software testing. Although it is a re…
TESTEVAL: Benchmarking Large Language Models for Test Case Generation
Wenhan Wang, Chenyuan Yang, Zhijie Wang +6
Testing plays a crucial role in the software development cycle, enabling the detection of bugs, vulnerabilities, and other undesirable behaviors. To perform software testing, teste…
SBEST: Spectrum-Based Fault Localization Without Fault-Triggering Tests
Md Nakhla Rafi, Lorena Barreto Simedo Pacheco, An Ran Chen +3
Fault localization is a critical step in software maintenance. Yet, many existing techniques, such as Spectrum-Based Fault Localization (SBFL), rely heavily on the availability of…
Towards Better Graph Neural Network-based Fault Localization Through Enhanced Code Representation
Md Nakhla Rafi, Dong Jae Kim, An Ran Chen +2
Automatic software fault localization plays an important role in software quality assurance by pinpointing faulty locations for easier debugging. Coverage-based fault localization,…
LLMParser: An Exploratory Study on Using Large Language Models for Log Parsing
Zeyang Ma, An Ran Chen, Dong Jae Kim +2
Logs are important in modern software development with runtime information. Log parsing is the first step in many log-based analyses, that involve extracting structured information…
Back to the Future! Studying Data Cleanness in Defects4J and its Impact on Fault Localization
Md Nakhla Rafi, An Ran Chen, Tse-Hsun Chen +1
For software testing research, Defects4J stands out as the primary benchmark dataset, offering a controlled environment to study real bugs from prominent open-source systems. Howev…
Are They All Good? Studying Practitioners' Expectations on the Readability of Log Messages
Zhenhao Li, An Ran Chen, Xing Hu +3
Developers write logging statements to generate logs that provide run-time information for various tasks. The readability of log messages in the logging statements (i.e., the descr…
