Abstract

A computer-implemented method for reviewing software includes monitoring a review session held by one or more reviewers for locating errors in a computer program, and automatically detecting a suggestion-triggering event in the monitored session. A suggested action predicted to increase a likelihood of locating the errors is determined based on known bug patterns responsively to the detected suggestion-triggering event. The suggested action is applied in an execution of the review session.
