Abstract

A key to the success of Automatic Program Repair techniques is how easily they can be used in an industrial setting. In this article, we describe a collaboration by a team from four UK-based universities with Bloomberg (London) in implementing automatic, high-quality fixes to its code base. We explain the motivation for adopting APR, the mechanics of the prototype tool that was built, and the practicalities of integrating APR into existing systems. IEEE
