Automatic bug fixing is made according to a specification of the expected behavior which can be for instance a formal specification or a test suite. [5]A test-suite – the input/output pairs specify the functionality of the program, possibly captured in assertions can be used as a test oracle to drive the search.
Memory leaks may not be serious or even detectable by normal means. In modern operating systems, normal memory used by an application is released when the application terminates. This means that a memory leak in a program that only runs for a short time may not be noticed and is rarely serious. Much more serious leaks include those:
Resource leaks may happen under regular program flow – such as simply forgetting to release a resource – or only in exceptional circumstances, such as when a resource is not released if there is an exception in another part of the program. Resource leaks are very frequently caused by early exit from a subroutine, either by a return ...
A patch is data that is intended to be used to modify an existing software resource such as a program or a file, often to fix bugs and security vulnerabilities. [1] [2] A patch may be created to improve functionality, usability, or performance.
Many resource leaks are fixed by resource reclamation by the operating system after the process terminates and makes an exit system call. Resource leaks are thus primarily a problem for long-lived processes, as leaked resources held by still-running processes are often not reclaimed; and for processes that rapidly acquire and leak many resources.
A software bug is a design defect in computer software.A computer program with many or serious bugs may be described as buggy.. The effects of a software bug range from minor (such as a misspelled word in the user interface) to severe (such as frequent crashing).

Remote debugging is the process of debugging a program running on a system different from the debugger. To start remote debugging, a debugger connects to a remote system over a communications link such as a local area network. The debugger can then control the execution of the program on the remote system and retrieve information about its state.
