StaQC: A Systematically Mined Question-Code Dataset from Stack Overflow
Stack Overflow (SO) has been a great source of natural language questions and their code solutions (i.e., question-code pairs), which are critical for many tasks including code retrieval and annotation. In most existing research, question-code pairs were collected heuristically and tend to have low quality. In this paper, we investigate a new problem of systematically mining question-code pairs...
متن کاملHow Do Open Source Developers Talk about Users?
When open source software developers are making design decisions, how do they talk about users? To begin to answer this question, 100 contentious Firefox bug reports were analyzed for distinct uses of the word “user.” The results show that developers use authoritative words (such as allow, educate, and require) to describe what software does for users. Most statements involved confident specula...
متن کاملStack Overflow Query Outcome Prediction
Stack Overflow’s core mission is to create an online encyclopedia for all programming knowledge. In order to ensure quality content in the face of rapid growth, community moderators frequently close low quality questions, often asked by newcomers. In order to alleviate moderator burden and ease newcomers’ transition, we devise two classifiers to predict 1) whether a question will be closed and ...
متن کاملHow Do Developers Solve Software-engineering Tasks on Model-based Code Generators? An Empirical Study Design
Model-based code-generators are complex in nature; they are built using a variety of tools such as language workbenches, and model-to-model and model-to-text transformation languages. Due to the highly heterogeneous technology ecosystem in which code generators are built, understanding and maintaining their architecture pose numerous cognitive challenges to both novice and expert developers. Mo...
متن کاملSupplying Collaborative Source-code Retrieval Tools to Software Developers
Collaborative information retrieval (CIR) and search-driven software development (SDD) are both new emerging research fields; the first one was born in response to the problem of satisfying shared information needs of groups of users that collaborate explicitly, and the second to explore source-code retrieval concept as an essential activity during software development process. Taking advantage...
