MINING LIBRARY SPECIFICATIONS USING INDUCTIVE LEARNING

摘要

A system and method for mining program specifications includes generating unit tests to exercise functions of a library through an application program interface (API), based upon an (API) signature (101), A response to the unit tests is determined (104) to generate a transaction in accordance with a target behavior. The transaction (110) is converted into a relational form, and specifications of the library are learned using an inductive logic programming tool (107) from the relational form of the transaction.
