Time Band

By setting a time band, the program will dim events that are outside this time window. This is useful for (virtual) conferences with a continuous program (with repeated sessions).
The time band will also limit the events that are included in the personal iCalendar subscription service.

Abstract

In this experience report we present SAW-BOT, a bot proposing fixes for static analysis warnings. The bot has been evaluated with five professional software developers by means of a Wizard of Oz experiment, semi-structred interviews and mTAM questionnaire. We have observed that developers prefer GitHub suggestions to two baseline operation modes. Our study suggests that GitHub suggestions are a viable mechanism for implementing bots proposing fixes for static analysis warnings.
