Defining Smart Contract Defects on Ethereum [PDF]

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, 2020, 2019
Smart contracts are programs running on a blockchain. They are immutable to change, and hence can not be patched for bugs once deployed. Thus it is critical to ensure they are bug-free and well-designed before deployment. A Contract defect is an error, flaw or fault in a smart contract that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to ...
