Many of the problems found in the uses of exception handling are caused by the lack of testing and a priori design of the exceptional behavior. As a consequence, exceptions flow in unforeseen ways during the execution of a software system, causing a negative impact on reliability. This paper presents a new agile approach to test the exceptional behavior of a system. It supports developers in checking...
Recent studies have attempted to evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of using aspect-oriented programming to modularize exception handling code. In spite of their many interesting findings, these studies have not reached a consensus when it comes to the impact of aspectization on exception handler reuse. In fact, their results are sometimes in direct contradiction.In this paper we describe a study...
To constantly test software, in order to keep it as free as possible from defects, it is required to find and apply a testing approach that best fits the product under test. The variety of problems and the richness of existing approaches make the challenge to choose and plan for a better combination to reach desired quality level even harder. This paper introduces a case study that aims presenting...
The Java modeling language (JML) is a behavioral interface specification language (BISL) designed for Java. It was developed with the aim of improving the functional software correctness of Java applications. The JML compiler (jmlc) generates bytecodes that use the Java reflection mechanism and data structures not supported by Java ME applications. In order to overcome this limitation, we propose...
Software product lines (SPLs) enable modular, large-scale reuse through a software architecture addressing multiple core and varying features. To reap the benefits of SPLs, their designs need to be stable. Design stability encompasses the sustenance of the product line's modularity properties in the presence of changes to both the core and varying features. It is usually assumed that aspect-oriented...
