Detecting implicit exceptions of service-oriented application based on context

Implicit exceptions in service-oriented applications will result in uncertainty of system, incorrect business data, unexpected error pages, or even uncovered disaster situations. This paper proposes a context-based approach to detect implicit exceptions. An implicit exception feature model named ECC is presented, and a detecting approach based on ECC model is given. Also the implementation of a prototype system is provided to demonstrate the practicability of our approach.
