Resumen:
n this paper we report a preliminary work about XPath debugging. We will describe how we can manipulate an XPath expression in order to obtain a set of alternative XPath expressions that match to a given XML document. For each alternative XPath expression we will give a chance degree that represents the degree in which the expression deviates from the initial expression. Thus, our work is focused on providing the programmer a repertoire of paths that (s)he can use to retrieve answers. The approach has been implemented and tested.
