Abstract
As a direct cause of software defects, human error is the key to understanding and identifying defects. We propose a new code inspection method: targeted code inspection based on human error mechanisms of software engineers. Based on the common erroneous mechanisms of human cognition, the method targets error-prone codes with high efficiency and minimum effort. The proposed method is supported by preliminary evidence in a pilot study.
