Abstract
An online system identifies an assignment for a computer program error indicated in an error message by applying an assignment model to token sequences identified in the error message. The error message includes a sequence of execution paths of the computer program. Each execution path indicates a function call active in computer memory when the error was generated. In other words, the error message allows tracking of the sequence of nested paths up to the point where the error was generated. In one example, the error message is a stack trace message that reports active stack frames in computer memory during the execution of the program.
