The Debugging Process

The debugging process begins with the execution of a test case. As shown in fig 5.7, the debugging process begins with the execution of a test case. Results are assessed and a lack of correspondence between expected and actual is encountered. In many cases, the non-corresponding data is a symptom of an underlying cause as yet hidden. The debugging process attempts to match symptom with cause, thereby leading to error correction.

The debugging process attempts to match symptom with cause, there by leading to error correction.
The debugging process will always have two outcomes:
1. The cause will be found, corrected, and removed
2. The cause will not be found.

In the latter case, the person performing debugging may suspect a cause, design a test case to help validate his/her suspicion, and work toward error correction in iterative fashion.
