Video-based bug reports are increasingly being used to document bugs for programs centered around a graphical user interface (GUI). However, developing automated techniques to manage video-based reports is challenging as it requires…
About 40% of software bug reports are duplicates of one another, which pose a major overhead during software maintenance. Traditional techniques often focus on detecting duplicate bug reports that are textually similar. However, in bug…
Screen recordings of mobile applications are easy to obtain and capture a wealth of information pertinent to software developers (e.g., bugs or feature requests), making them a popular mechanism for crowdsourced app feedback. Thus, these…
Duplicate bug reports make up 42% of all reports in bug tracking systems (e.g., Bugzilla), causing significant maintenance overhead. Hence, detecting and resolving duplicate bug reports is essential for effective issue management.…

One of the most important tasks related to managing bug reports is localizing the fault so that a fix can be applied. As such, prior work has aimed to automate this task of bug localization by formulating it as an information retrieval…
Many users and contributors of large open-source projects report software defects or enhancement requests (known as bug reports) to the issue-tracking systems. However, they sometimes report issues that have already been reported. First,…
Bug reports are vital for software maintenance that allow users to inform developers of the problems encountered while using software. However, it is difficult for non-technical users to write clear descriptions about the bug occurrence.…
Bugs are prevalent in software development. To improve software quality, bugs are filed using a bug tracking system. Properties of a reported bug would consist of a headline, description, project, product, component that is affected by the…
One of the key tasks related to ensuring mobile app quality is the reporting, management, and resolution of bug reports. As such, researchers have committed considerable resources toward automating various tasks of the bug management…
Bug reports document unexpected behaviors in software, enabling developers to understand, validate, and fix bugs. Unfortunately, a significant portion of bug reports is of low quality, which poses challenges for developers in terms of…
As part of the process of resolving issues submitted by users via bug reports, Android developers attempt to reproduce and observe the failures described by the bug report. Due to the low-quality of bug reports and the complexity of modern…
Crowdtesting is effective especially when it comes to the feedback on GUI systems, or subjective opinions about features. Despite of this, we find crowdtesting reports are highly replicated, i.e., 82% of them are replicates of others. Hence…
As the popularity of mobile smart devices continues to climb the complexity of "apps" continues to increase, making the development and maintenance process challenging. Current bug tracking systems lack key features to effectively support…
Bug reports provide critical insights into software quality, yet existing datasets often suffer from limited scope, outdated content, or insufficient metadata for machine learning. To address these limitations, we present GitBugs-a…
One of the primary mechanisms by which developers receive feedback about in-field failures of software from users is through bug reports. Unfortunately, the quality of manually written bug reports can vary widely due to the effort required…
Android users are now suffering severe threats from unwanted behaviors of various apps. The analysis of apps' audit logs is one of the essential methods for some device manufacturers to unveil the underlying malice within apps. We propose…
The modern software development landscape has seen a shift in focus toward mobile applications as "smart" devices near ubiquitous adoption. Due to this trend, the complexity of mobile applications has been increasing, making development and…
This is the world of information. The ever growing field Information Technology has its many advanced notable features which made it what it was now today. In this world, the information has to be processed, clearly distributed and must be…
Mobile application development is a fast-paced process where maintaining high-quality user experiences is crucial. Bug reproduction, a key aspect of maintaining app quality, often faces significant challenges. Specifically, when…
