Even though AI can generate code, it is hard to trust it unless you debug the code before implementing it. That is why in this post, we are going to talk about the Debug-Gym tool from Microsoft ...
Programming is a constant game of mental Jenga: one line of code stacked upon another, building a tower of code you hope is robust enough not to come crashing down. But it always does, as code never ...
If you have ever tried to debug optimized code, you probably realized that it can be a frustrating experience. Without optimizations, your debugger is a reliable assistant, precisely following every ...
Back in the day, we'd write some code, compile, execute, see what happened and repeat. That was testing. (Sometimes that's still what testing looks like, for better or worse.) Today, we can do a lot ...
Bugs occur at two stages in a code's life: during development and in production. Development bugs are usually easier to track down because, generally speaking, those bugs are related to code you've ...
The software development landscape is experiencing a seismic shift. Recent research I conducted reveals that artificial intelligence (AI) systems can now systematically identify and resolve complex ...
Modern multithreaded, asynchronous code can be hard to debug. The complexity that comes with message passing and thread management results in bugs that can seem non-determinant, with little or no way ...
July 2024 version of the popular code editor also allows users to configure which browser to use for opening links and brings more control to extension updates. Microsoft has released Visual Studio ...
