Deriving thresholds of software metrics to predict faults on open source software: Replicated case studies
作者:
Highlights:
• We empirically examined if there are effective thresholds for software metrics.
• Open-source software systems were used as benchmarking datasets.
• The learner model was created using logistic regression and the Bender method.
• Experimental results revealed that some metrics have effective threshold values.
