Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems and methods for automatically testing one or more versions of a compiler of are disclosed. A compiler is instrumented to generated data exposing various internal decisions and/or actions made by the compiler. Subsequently, multiple distinct versions of the compiler are executed to compile a code corpus associated with a particular programming language. Output (including instrumentation output) from the compilation of the code corpus for each version of the compiler is obtained and compared to identify behavioral changes that may exist between the various versions of the compiler.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for testing a compiler comprising: compiling a code corpus comprising a plurality of test programs corresponding to a particular programming language, the code corpus being compiled by a first version of a compiler to generate first compiler output; compiling the code corpus using a second version of the compiler to generate second compiler output, the second version of the compiler including different functionality than the first version of the c…
