Abstract
A method is provided to automatically correct an original source code. An abstract syntax tree (AST) is created from the original source code where the AST includes AST nodes. AST node filter queries are evaluated on the AST to filter out AST nodes with defect patterns. Automatic fixes are applied to the filtered AST nodes to transform the AST. A modified source code is created by deserializing the transformed AST.
