Very excited to be organising the next edition of the Mutation Analysis workshop co-located with ICST in Toronto together with Renzo Degiovanni !

The Fuzzing Book 1.2 is out! This release includes * a new chapter on fuzzing with constraints * a new chapter on compiler testing * support for Python 3.9-3.12 All new features: fuzzingbook.org/html/ReleaseNo…

IMPORTANT: We will be switching to Mastodon for further announcements. Find and follow us at mastodon.social/@TheFuzzingBook

After a few days of renovation, The Fuzzing Book is up to date again. I am particularly fond of the new chapter on _compiler testing_, in which we use abstract syntax tree grammars to generate, mutate, and evolve Python code. Enjoy! fuzzingbook.org/html/PythonFuz…

The Debugging Book 1.2 is out! This version adds support for recent Python versions up to 3.12, and fixes a number of small bugs. Enjoy! debuggingbook.org/html/ReleaseNo…

IMPORTANT: We will be switching to Mastodon for further announcements. Find and follow us at mastodon.social/@TheDebuggingB…

I have moved the fuzzingbook.org and debuggingbook.org social media accounts from X to Mastodon (@[email protected]). Future announcements will be posted at mastodon.social/@TheFuzzingBook and mastodon.social/@TheDebuggingB…. Enjoy!

Just FYI, this years fuzzing tool competition will also have the possibility of prizes, for those 'top-performing' participants. 🏆🧁 Head on over to the website 'sbft24.github.io/tools/fuzzing' Google 🥳
