Objectives |
Students are familiar with systematic methods of debugging. Based on a solid theory on failures in computer programs, they understand how to find "bugs" in computer programs, how to reproduce them, and how to fix them. They are able to use state-of-the-art debugging tools for modern programming languages and apply this knowledge for (automated) debugging of large scale computer programs.
