Techniques for Bebugging
- Runtime Injection – It is one of the technique of bebugging in which software triggers are used to inject defects dynamically into a running software system. Time based triggers, Interrupt based triggers, Network level fault injection and Syscall interposition techniques etc. are the number of ways in which runtime injection is performed.
- Compile Injection – It is one of the technique of bebugging in which stimulated faults are injected in source code of the system and it helps team to determine various faults left in the system and new faults identified in the system.
- Code Injection: To simulate injection attacks or unexpected code execution paths, insert code snippets at specific locations in the application to change its behavior or modify data flow.
- Dependency Injection: To mimic faults that may arise when working with external systems or libraries, inject mock objects or broken dependencies into the code.
- Fault Injection: To see how the program responds to unfavorable circumstances, inject exceptions, corrupt memory, or simulate network failures into the system during runtime.
- Debugging Hooks: To trace the program’s execution flow and keep an eye on variable values during runtime, strategically place logging statements or debugging hooks throughout the code.
Bebugging in Software Testing
Prerequisite – Defect or Bug in Software and Bug Life Cycle
When it comes to Software Development then Software Testing automatically added to this process. As every software development follows Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) in which Software testing is one of important phase. There are different types of software testing are performed to develop and deliver a quality software product to the client/customer.

By different types of testing, Software Testing team validates different types of quality parameters like quality, effectiveness, reliability, requirements, security etc. There are different types of techniques to perform different types of testing, where Bebugging is one of the important and useful technique which is implemented by the software testing teams to ensure its performance and quality.
Generally during testing phase testing team identifies defects/bugs which are there in a software product and then identified bugs are fixed by development team by following a Defect Life Cycle. As we know Debugging is a general process in software development as with debugging we identify, analyze and remove errors. But Begugging is a different process than debugging. So, there should not be any confusion in between Bebugging and Debugging. So, Lets start understand Bebugging by going little bit deep into it.
