Context Multiple fault localization (MFL) is the act of identifying the locations of multiple faults
(more than one fault) in a faulty software program. This is known to be more complicated …

First-order mutants (FOMs) have been widely used in mutation-based fault localization
(MBFL) approaches and have achieved promising results in single-fault localization …

Spectrum-based fault localization (SBFL) works well for single-fault programs but its
accuracy decays for increasing fault numbers. We present FLITSR (Fault Localization by …

Bug isolation is a popular approach for multi-fault localization (MFL), where all failed test
cases are clustered into several groups, and then the failed test cases in each group …

The clustering technique has attracted a lot of attention as a promising strategy for parallel
debugging in multi-fault scenarios, this heuristic approach (ie, failure indexing or fault …

Failures that are not related to a specific fault can reduce the effectiveness of fault
localization in multi-fault scenarios. To tackle this challenge, researchers and practitioners …

Testing and debugging are very important tasks in software development. Fault localization
is a very critical activity in the debugging process and also is one of the most difficult and …

This paper presents our approach proposed to detect and create indivisible multi-hunk bugs,
an evaluation of existing repair techniques based on these bugs, and a study of the patches …

Over the last decade, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation has been established as a safe,
efficient, reliable, and flexible method for performing real-time simulation. Furthermore, in the …

Background: Fault localization in software maintenance and debugging can be a costly
process. Spectrum-Based Fault Localization (SBFL) is a widely-used method for fault …
