The motivation for the work is to support relative debugging, where it is necessary to iteratively refine a set of asser-tions between different versions of a program. DUCT is novel because it exploits the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) that underpins the .NET Framework. Accordingly, it works on a wide range of programming languages without any modification. The paper describes the design and implementation of DUCT, and then illustrates its use with a small case study.7 pagesSoftware EngineeringD.2.5text
