A python implementation of the FLITSR fault localization tool for multiple faults.

For the full documentation, see the Read the Docs page, and for the source code, see the GitHub repository.

Setup

Requirements

• python3 (> 3.8)
• java (optional; used for parallel techniques)
• matplotlib (optional; used for evaluation plotting)

Installation

Quick install

To install FLITSR, simply install as a python package using the following command:

pip install flitsr

For more detailed installation instructions, see Installation Instructions in the documentation.

Basic usage

Running FLITSR

To run the FLITSR algorithm and produce a suspiciousness ranking, simply use the command:

flitsr <input>

where <input> is the directory containing the coverage files for GZoltar input, or the file containing the coverage for TCM input. See the Input structure section for more information on the types of input.

More advanced options and outputs are described in the documentation.

Running evaluation

To run the full evaluation on FLITSR, simply use the command:

run_all [-t [<extension>]/-g]

in the top level directory for the dataset. If the -t option is given (with an optional file extension), then the TCM format is assumed, otherwise if the -g option is given, Gzoltar format is assumed.

See the documentation for more information.
