Title
Repeatedly-executed-method viewer for efficient visualization of execution paths and states in Java
Abstract
The state of a program at runtime is useful information for developers to understand a program. Omniscient debugging and logging-based tools enable developers to investigate the state of a program at an arbitrary point of time in an execution. While these tools are effective to analyze the state at a single point of time, they might be insufficient to understand the generic behavior of a method which includes various control-flow paths. In this paper, we propose REMViewer (Repeatedly-Executed-Method Viewer), or a tool that visualizes multiple execution paths of a Java method. The tool shows each execution path in a separated view so that developers can firstly select actual execution paths of interest and then compare the state of local variables in the paths.
