Bisection (software engineering)
open-in-new
<p>Bisection is a method used in <a href="/facts/Software_development/UUfsAaYY">software development</a> to identify <a href="/facts/Patch_(computing)/sIHVBPls">change sets</a> that result in a specific behavior change. It is mostly employed for finding the patch that introduced a <a href="/facts/Software_bug/I1uSXySv">bug</a>. Another application area is finding the patch that indirectly fixed a bug. </p>
