A low variance is desirable to increase the confidence in the estimate, but too many tests may be required by conventional reliability assessment testing techniques based solely on the operational profile. This article presents probabilistic sampling-based testing, a new technique using unequal probability sampling to exploit auxiliary information about the software under test so as to assess reliability unbiasedly and efficiently. The technique expedites the assessment process assuming the availability of some prior belief about input regions failure proneness. The evaluation by simulation and experimentally shows promising results in terms of estimate accuracy and efficiency.","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126068263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Automatic source code evaluation by metrics and thresholds can help reduce the burden of a manual inspection. This study addresses two problems. (1) Evolvability defects are not usually managed in bug tracking systems. (2) Conventional methods cannot fully interpret the relations among the metrics in a given context (e.g., programming language, application domain). The key actions of our method are to (1) gather training-data for machine learning by experts' manual inspection of some of the files in given systems (benchmark) and (2) employ a classification-tree learner algorithm, C5.0, which can deal with non-orthogonal relations between metrics. Furthermore, we experimentally confirm that, even with less training-data, our method provides a more precise evaluation than four conventional methods (the percentile, Alves' method, Bender's method, and the ROC curve-based method).","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132586402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To help developers in overcoming the initial hurdles of integrating SGX with existing code bases, a small helper library is presented. Furthermore, hardening strategies are identified and applied in a case study based on the simple KISSDB database, demonstrating how SGX can be used in practice.","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"16 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132794978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Software configuration errors can have catastrophic consequences, seriously affecting the normal use of software and quality of service. And misconfiguration diagnosis faces many challenges, such as path-explosion problems and incomplete statistical data. Our study of the log that is generated in response to misconfigurations by six widely used pieces of software highlights some interesting characteristics. These observations have influenced the design of MisconfDoctor, a misconfiguration diagnosis tool via log-based configuration testing. Through comprehensive misconfiguration testing, MisconfDoctor first extracts log features for every misconfiguration and builds a feature database. When a system misconfiguration occurs, MisconfDoctor suggests potential misconfigurations by calculating the similarity of the new exception log to the feature database. We use manual and real-world error cases from Httpd, MySQL and PostgreSQL in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the tool. Experimental results demonstrate that the tool's accuracy reaches 85% when applied to manual-error cases, and 78% for real-world cases.","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131062114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Socio-Technical Congruence (STC) is proposed to measure the match between coordination requirements and actual coordination activities, and has been proved to have impact on software failures in commercial projects. Continuous defect prediction is aimed to predict defects just in time, which is more meaningful than traditional defect prediction in practice. In this paper, we compute the build-level STC and investigate its usefulness in continuous defect prediction based on 10 GitHub projects. We find that adding STC metrics into logistic regression models can significantly improve both the explanatory power and the predictive power when predicting build failures. Furthermore, we compare the performance of STC and MDL from the aspects of regression and prediction. MDL is short for Missing Developer Links, a deviation of the STC metric. We find that MDL usually performs better than STC. Our work is promising to help detect coordination issues during real time process of software development.","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116912858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sequence of exchanged messages that are different with respect to these runs are extracted. A UML sequence diagram is automatically generated to depict this sequence. Hence, the developer can observe the interleaving of messages that caused the failure.

Due to their sheer amount, the observed failures cannot be inspected individually but must be automatically grouped and prioritized. An open challenge is to find similarities in failures across different systems. We propose a novel approach for identifying error-prone software technologies via a cross-system analysis based on monitoring and crash data. Our approach ranks the error-prone software technologies and analyzes the occurred exceptions, thus making it easier for developers to investigate cross-system failures. Finding such failures is highly advantageous as fixing a fault may benefit many affected systems. A preliminary case study on monitoring data of hundreds of different systems demonstrates the feasibility of our approach.","PeriodicalId":114973,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Software Quality, Reliability and Security (QRS)","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114010565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
