Popis: Nowadays, API Specification Mining is an important cornerstone of automated software engineering. In this paper, we introduce SpecTackle, an IDE-based experimentation platform aiming to facilitate experimentation and validation of specification mining algorithms and tools. SpecTackle strives toward (1) providing easy access to various specification mining tools, (2) simplifying configuration and usage through a shared interface, and (3) in-code visualization of pattern occurrences. The first version supports two heterogeneous mining tools, a third-party graph-based miner as well as a custom sequence mining tool. In the long term, SpecTackle envisions to also provide ground-truth benchmark projects, a unified pattern meta-model and parameter optimization for mining tools.
