Abstract: | To help developers navigate documentation, we introduce TaskNav, a tool that automatically discovers and indexes task descriptions in software documentation. With TaskNav, we conceptualize tasks as specific programming actions that have been described in the documentation. TaskNav presents these extracted task descriptions along with concepts, code elements, and section headers in an auto-complete search interface. Our preliminary evaluation indicates that search results identified through extracted task descriptions are more helpful to developers than those found through other means, and that they help bridge the gap between documentation structure and the information needs of software developers. |
