FLOMA: Statistical Fault Localization for Mobile Embedded System

摘要：

Mobile applications are becoming more and more popular with the prevalence of mobile operating system and mobile Internet However, the bugs in the mobile application not only results from buggy code but also from unreliable context providers. In this paper, we proposed a statistical fault localization framework targeting at the bugs in the mobile application, especially the buggy context provider faults. And we further propose a fault tolerant design to make the mobile application immune to buggy context provider bugs. Our experiment shows our proposed technique is much more effective than existing technique to locate faults in mobile application and the fault tolerant design can effectively prevent the mobile application behave abnormally in spite of buggy context providers.
