PAR generates more
acceptable patches than GenProg
43
Limitations
• Fix templates are written manually.
• But it is one-time cost, these are highly reusable.
•We entirely re-implemented GenProg by Java.
•All subjects are collected from open source projects.
• Some participants may not be thoroughly qualified.

Future Work
Automatic Fix Template Identification
• More templates can fix more bugs.
More Test Cases
• More test cases may lead us to better patches.
