SMT-Based Refutation of Spurious Bug Reports in the Clang Static Analyzer [PDF]
, 2018 We describe and evaluate a bug refutation extension for the Clang Static Analyzer (CSA) that addresses the limitations of the existing built-in constraint solver. In particular, we complement CSA's existing heuristics that remove spurious bug reports. We
