Well established libraries typically have API documentation. However, theyfrequently lack examples and explanations, possibly making difficult theireffective reuse. Stack Overflow is a question-and-answer website oriented toissues related to software development. Despite the increasing adoption ofStack Overflow, the information related to a particular topic (e.g., an API) isspread across the website. Thus, Stack Overflow still lacks organization of thecrowd knowledge available on it. Our target goal is to address the problem ofthe poor quality documentation for APIs by providing an alternative artifact todocument them based on the crowd knowledge available on Stack Overflow, calledcrowd cookbook. A cookbook is a recipe-oriented book, and we refer to ourcookbook as crowd cookbook since it contains content generated by a crowd. Thecookbooks are meant to be used through an exploration process, i.e. browsing.In this paper, we present a semi-automatic approach that organizes the crowdknowledge available on Stack Overflow to build cookbooks for APIs. We havegenerated cookbooks for three APIs widely used by the software developmentcommunity: SWT, LINQ and QT. We have also defined desired properties that crowdcookbooks must meet, and we conducted an evaluation of the cookbooks againstthese properties with human subjects. The results showed that the cookbooksbuilt using our approach, in general, meet those properties. As a highlight,most of the recipes were considered appropriate to be in the cookbooks and haveself-contained information. We concluded that our approach is capable toproduce adequate cookbooks automatically, which can be as useful as manuallyproduced cookbooks. This opens an opportunity for API designers to enrichexistent cookbooks with the different points of view from the crowd, or even togenerate initial versions of new cookbooks.
