Abstract:
Injection of software faults into source code is one promising approach to improve software fault tolerance and assess the dependability of software systems. While multiple approaches have been presented in the past, there is still room for improvement regarding the accuracy of the injections in comparison to the fault model. We propose an approach specifically for C++ based on the Clang ASTMatchFinder functionality, which is currently in development, but already leads to promising results regarding the accuracy of generated injections.
