This paper introduces LadyBug, a GitHub bot that automatically localizes bugs for Android apps by combining UI interaction information with text retrieval. LadyBug connects to an Android app's GitHub repository, and is triggered when a bug…

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…

Redundancy-based automated program repair (APR), which generates patches by referencing existing source code, has gained much attention since they are effective in repairing real-world bugs with good interpretability. However, since…
