004. May 22 to May 25

Planned tasks for this week

• task 1: update existing data to include API, correct-usage and/or 'rule' ✔️
• task 2: collect more data using the techniques we discussed (stemming,filtering,issues etc.) ✔️
• task 3:

Progress

task 1

• added relevant api and general rule to as many problems as possible; some were harder to generalize
• added 'suggestion' coding practices to problems not specifically tied to an api
• separated problems related to api use from ones with 'suggestions'

task 2

• edited mining code to include stem words and filter commits to .java files
• mined some more repos and put the data on github

Open Problems

Things we discussed/agreed on

• filtering commit messages to those affecting .java files and using stemming
• using issues to find misuses
• separating project-specific misuses from project-independent ones
• adding API and 'correct usage' info to data
• adding a general 'rule' message to data
• removed the data from the 'plaid' repo that was irrelevant

Next steps

• mine more repos using filtering and linking to issues
