Automated Program Repair
APR: Workshop on Automated Program Repair
In conjunction with
IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering 2026
October 12-16, 2026
Holiday Inn Munich City Centre
Munich, Germany
Focuses on techniques for automatically finding and fixing software bugs, one of the longest-running threads in automated software engineering. Topics include test-driven repair, learning-based and language-model repair, fault localisation, and the persistent problem of patch overfitting, where a generated fix satisfies the test suite without actually correcting the underlying defect. That failure mode is why repair results are so sensitive to how thorough the tests were in the first place.
