  • Error and solution tracking in a software development environment
    Patent number: 9665467
    Abstract: In an approach for error and solution tracking a processor identifies that a first occurrence of a first error is present in code. A processor tracks a first set of actions made to the code which affect the first occurrence of the first error. A processor determines that the first occurrence of the first error has been resolved. A processor records the first error and the first set of actions to the code. A processor identifies that a second occurrence of the first error is present in the code. A processor determines that the first error has previously occurred. A processor retrieves the first set of actions. A processor causes the first set of actions to be made to the code to affect the second occurrence of the first error.
