17 /// DAGDeltaAlgorithm - Implements a "delta debugging" algorithm for minimizing
18 /// directed acyclic graphs using a predicate function.
20 /// The result of the algorithm is a subset of the input change set which is
21 /// guaranteed to satisfy the predicate, assuming that the input set did. For
22 /// well formed predicates, the result set is guaranteed to be such that
23 /// removing any single element not required by the dependencies on the other
24 /// elements would falsify the predicate.
26 /// The DAG should be used to represent dependencies in the changes which are
27 /// likely to hold across the predicate function. That is, for a particular
28 /// changeset S and predicate P:
30 /// P(S) => P(S union pred(S))
32 /// The minization algorithm uses this dependency information to attempt to
33 /// eagerly prune large subsets of changes. As with \see DeltaAlgorithm, the DAG
34 /// is not required to satisfy this property, but the algorithm will run
35 /// substantially fewer tests with appropriate dependencies. \see DeltaAlgorithm
36 /// for more information on the properties which the predicate function itself
