Abstract
Finally, we describe a program dynamic slicing-based approach to failure indexing, which complements R-PROXIMITY. R-PROXIMITY is a quality failure indexing tool, but its effectiveness relies on a sufficient number of correct executions, which may or may not be available in practice. The proposed dynamic slicing-based approach does not require any correct executions, and hence perfectly complements R-PROXIMITY . All the three techniques are subject to three mid-sized programs grep, gzip, and flex, and the result validates their advancement of the state of the art.
