Data-driven bug finding

Read Original

The author describes common software bugs encountered in apps like Facebook and Google Maps, then proposes using analytics data (e.g., user dead-ends, undo actions) to automatically detect these issues. The article draws a parallel to hardware testing practices, where performance counters and constrained random testing are standard, suggesting software development can learn from these more advanced hardware methodologies.
