→Project Description
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Debugging Delta debugging] is an automated approach to debugging that isolates failures systematically. Given a failing test that can be mechanically verified (including a browser crash), [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_Debugging delta debugging] is a way of automatically isolating the change that introduced the failure. Having a framework in place to pull builds from CVS, bisect by date and change set (using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonsai_CVS_code_management_system bonsai ] data -- remember, CVS doesn't have changesets!), and report results would let computers make developers more productive.
== Project License ==
Written in perl, given a test case that can automatically verify whether or
<br />not a piece of functionality of a program works or not, the delta debugging
<br />framework aims to automatically isolate the failure-inducing changes to the
<br />source code that caused a regression.
