LI Yong, HUANG Zhi-qiu, WANG Yong, et al. Survey on Data Driven Software Defects Prediction[J]. Acta Electronica Sinica, 2017, 45(4): 982-988. DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.0372-2112.2017.04.030.
Data driven software defects prediction is considered as an effective means for the optimization of quality assurance activities.This paper tries to survey the studies of data driven software defects prediction from 2005 to 2015.First
it briefly introduces the research background in this field.Then
it summarizes and analyzes the software modules attribute metrics in detail
and thoroughly surveys the state-of-the-art methods of data driven software defects prediction.The discussed topics include within-release
cross-release and cross-project defects prediction.Finally
the potential research directions in the field are discussed.
