Developer Information Assistants

Gopal SrinivasaResearch SDE, Microsoft Research

The popularity of sites like StackOverflow indicates the need developers have for specific information during all phases of the software development lifecycle. However, these sites can only satisfy information needs as far as public data sources are concerned. For private data sources like code, or bugs, there are few technologies that developers can use to get assistance with their day to day tasks; for example, to fix a bug, or to know the impact of a check-in. Further, knowledge that can help resolve such queries are often locked away in the minds of senior developers and is unearthed only by asking the right expert. This leads to decreased productivity across the board; junior developers spend a lot of time trying to find the right expert to answer their queries and senior developers spend time fielding these queries.

All is not lost however - the situation can be remedied by developing tools that specifically cater to the information needs of developers. In this talk, we highlight the need for such tools, particularly for large software projects, and provide examples and user studies of such tools that were implemented in Microsoft Research.
