Aardwolf: A Modular Tool for Software Fault Localization

Aardwolf is¹ a software fault localization² tool with focus on

• Extensibility -- It should be possible and convenient to implement or extend a technique
• Language independence -- All implemented techniques should be available to many programming languages and implementing a new frontend should be reasonably difficult
• User experience -- The tool should be actually usable, which not only means accurate, but also offering rich output, being scalable and allowing convenient integration into real-world projects

¹ will be

² Software fault localization (SFL) is an area of research that aims to help programmers with understanding program errors and locating their cause by developing techniques that partially or fully automate the localization of faults in the source code.

Status

The tool is now under a complete rewrite. See legacy branch for the original version.
