The Fixie project

We are delighted that our paper ‘Let's Talk With Developers, Not About Developers: A Review of Automatic Program Repair Research’ has just been accepted by TSE :) In it we analyse the role humans have played in the APR studies contained in @martinmonperrus' Living Review of APR.

Watch an overview of our paper "Expanding Fix Patterns to Enable Automatic Program Repair" here: youtu.be/s5-2uOnbevw The paper has been nominated for the best paper award. @LancsUniSE @BSELBrunel @OR_GroupQMUL @csmstir @ISSREConf #thefixie #apr #automaticProgramRepair

Great to see some of our technical team (Dr David Bowes, Dr Vesna Nowack & Ryan Warren from @LancsUniSE) hard at work! :) @BSELBrunel @OR_GroupQMUL @csmstir #thefixie #apr #automaticProgramRepair #research #developers #bugs #software

Do you know what APR (Automatic Program Repair) is? How it works? When it can be used? Well over the next week we will releasing a series of videos explaining all! Stayed tuned @BSELBrunel @OR_GroupQMUL @csmstir #thefixie #apr #automaticProgramRepair #research #developers

We are looking for #softwaredevelopers to help us find out how developers interact with an APR tool and what would increase confidence in such a tool. Please RT @LancsUniSE @BSELBrunel @OR_Group @csmstir #softwaredeveloper #research #automatic #program #repair #apr

We are happy to announce that our IEEE Software article "On the Introduction of Automatic Program Repair in Bloomberg" is now available online : ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/93951… @LancsUniSE, @SaemundO, @OR_GroupQMUL, @BrunelCompSci

We are investigating current bug repair practices for automatic software repair to gain insights on building tools that could help developers. Could we get your thoughts and opinions on the topic through a 15min survey? Details here: lancasteruni.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cx…

Our poster presentation is available at @GeccoConf and @SaemundO will be available tomorrow for your questions.

Dr Emily Winter is presenting today our position paper “Human Factors in the Study of Automatic Software Repair” at The 8th International Workshop on Genetic Improvement (GI@ICSE 2020): geneticimprovementofsoftware.com/gi2020icse.html

Wohoo!!! Tutorial @ASEconf2020 accepted "Genetic improvement: Taking real-world source code and improving it using genetic programming" with @SaemundO @JohnRobWoodward
