Abstract

During execution of a program, an error is detected which results in the program reverting to a predefined state prior to the detected error. In some variations, the predefined state is a rollback point. Thereafter, one or more analysis tools are automatically activated that can characterize performance of the program and the execution of the program is recommenced until the error is detected. The analysis tools can then provide information useful for analyzing the cause of the error such as a trace log.
