Abstract: In a software development environment, a system and method for associating an assert with a unique identifier (“assert tag”), and using the unique identifier to store information associated with the assert in a database. Based on the unique identifier, information associated with the assert can be stored in a database or repository that contains assert information. This information can be updated, as well as displayed to the developer or tester. Information for the bugs associated with the assert can be retrieved from a database containing bug information and displayed to the developer or tester. Once the developer or tester has been presented with the information concerning the bugs associated with the assert, or other information associated with-the assert, the developer or tester can choose to enter or log-in a new bug into the database containing bug information.

Abstract: A method and system for injecting an exception into a hung program module to recover unsaved data. The method and system allows a user to determine that the program module is hung and inject an exception into the hung program module. In response to the injected exception, program code, within the program module, is activated to detect the crash and launch a failure reporting executable program that instructs the hung program module to execute its data recovery program. The file recovery program recovers the unsaved data and notifies the failure reporting executable program when it has completed the data recovery. Once the failure reporting executable program receives the notification, it will instruct the operating system to restart the program module. The restarted program module then displays a user interface with a list of the unsaved data that were recovered. The user interface also provides controls for a user to select, from the list of recovered data, the data that the program module will keep.
