Software is prone to bugs and failures. Security bugs are those that expose or share privileged information and access in violation of the software's requirements. Given the seriousness of security bugs, there are centralized mechanisms for…
Source code repositories allow developers to manage multiple versions (or branches) of a software system. Pull-requests are used to modify a branch, and backporting is a regular activity used to port changes from a current development…
The development of many highly dynamic environments, like pervasive environments, introduces the possibility to use geographically close-related services. Dynamically integrating and unintegrating these services in running applications is a…
We are living in an information era from Twitter to Fitocracy every episode of peoples life is converted to numbers. That abundance of data is also available in information technologies. From Stackoverflow to GitHub many big data sources…
AI-based code review tools automatically review and comment on pull requests to improve code quality. Despite their growing presence, little is known about their actual impact. We present a large-scale empirical study of 16 popular AI-based…
AskCI server is a collaborative, open source documentation server that uses GitHub for automation and version control of shared knowledge. A programmatic application programming interface, friendly user interface, and organization of…
With the advances in machine learning, there is a growing interest in AI-enabled tools for autocompleting source code. GitHub Copilot has been trained on billions of lines of open source GitHub code, and is one of such tools that has been…
Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline automates software development to speed up and enhance the efficiency of engineering software. These workflows consist of various jobs, such as code validation and testing,…
Maintaining a "green" mainline branch, where all builds pass successfully, is crucial but challenging in fast-paced, large-scale software development environments, particularly with concurrent code changes in large monorepos. SubmitQueue, a…
Cloud computing and Internet of Things have independently changed the course of technological development. The use of a synergistic approach that amalgamates the benefits of both these path breaking technologies into a single package is…
The demand for quick and reliable DevOps operations pushed distributors of repository platforms to implement workflows. Workflows allow automating code management operations directly on the repository hosting the software. However, this…
With an ever-increasing amount of open source software, the popularity of services like GitHub that facilitate code reuse, and common misconceptions about the licensing of open source software, the problem of license violations in the code…
Using libraries in applications has helped developers reduce the costs of reinventing already existing code. However, an increase in diverse technology stacks and third-party library usage has led developers to inevitably switch…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools such as GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are increasingly used in software engineering (SE) for tasks such as code, test, and documentation generation. However, engineers often face uncertainty about when to…
Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), such as computer vision, are now available as intelligent services and their accessibility and simplicity is compelling. Multiple vendors now offer this technology…
In the ever-evolving discipline of high-dimensional scientific data, collaborative immersive analytics (CIA) offers a promising frontier for domain experts in complex data visualization and interpretation. This research presents a…
Continuous integration (CI) is widely used by developers to ensure the quality and reliability of their software projects. However, diagnosing a CI regression is a tedious process that involves the manual analysis of lengthy build logs. In…
In the ever-evolving field of Deep Learning (DL), ensuring project quality and reliability remains a crucial challenge. This research investigates testing practices within DL projects in GitHub. It quantifies the adoption of testing…
Massive, multi-language, monolithic repositories form the backbone of many modern, complex software systems. To ensure consistent code quality while still allowing fast development cycles, Continuous Integration (CI) is commonly applied.…
AI-agents help developers in different coding tasks, such as developing new features, fixing bugs, and reviewing code. Developers can write a Github issue and assign it to an AI-agent like Copilot for implementation. Based on the issue and…
