Hello,

I did not see this email go through the Pharo users mailing list, so just in case:

Hi all,

As part of a research work on watchpoints, we are setting up a survey to gauge the general knowledge developers have on breakpoints/watchpoints.

It should take around 10 minutes to complete.
Here is the link to participate if you would be so kind: https://forms.gle/eK4HFvU1YNZZkiaHA

If you are interested in the results, you can check the box at the end of the survey and we will send you feedback on the results of the survey.

 

Additionally, we are going to set up a controlled experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of a new type of watchpoints we are developing for Pharo.
The gist of it is that we will observe participants hunt some bugs, with and without the new tool, and see if their performance improve.
So, if you know how to program in Pharo, and would be willing to participate, there is a question in the survey to tell us you are interested.
We will get research data, and you will get a new debugging tool in Pharo. So it's a win-win.

 

That's it! Thanks for your time! And extra thanks if you take the survey or consider participating in the experiment!
