TeBug 2011 - The 1st Workshop on Testing & Debugging (TeBug)

The 1st Workshop on Testing & Debugging (TeBug) aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the fields of software testing and debugging.

Papers to be submitted for TeBug should either focus on techniques that are relevant for debugging or describe the application of testing for debugging.

The latter is of special interest for the first edition of the workshop because the influence of testing on debugging and vice-versa has not yet been sufficiently addressed. Other topics of interest include static and dynamic program analysis, monitoring of software, and other debugging techniques such as algorithmic and automated debugging, delta debugging, debugging based on models, debugging using mutations or genetic programming, or debugging using slicing.

For TeBug we are seeking for high quality papers describing original research in the mentioned areas, or tool demonstration papers. Furthermore, we especially welcome industrial experience papers describing either open problems regarding the intersection of testing and debugging or experiences obtained when using debugging tools in practice.

For the best papers presented at TeBug, we plan to organize a special issue of a software engineering journal.
