AbstractThis paper introduces program chipping, a simple yet effective technique to isolate bugs. This technique automatically removes or chips away parts of a program so that the part that contributes to some symptomatic output becomes more apparent to the user. Program chipping is similar in spirit to traditional program slicing and debugging techniques, but chipping uses very simple techniques based on the syntactic structure of the program. We have developed a chipping tool for Java programs, called ChipperJ, and have run it on a variety of small to large programs, including a Java compiler, looking for various symptoms. The results are promising. The reduced program is generally about 20–35% of the size of the original. ChipperJ takes less than an hour on large programs to perform this reduction; even if it took overnight, that would be reasonable if it saves the developer time.
