Abstract

The automated detection of defective modules within software systems could lead to reduced development costs and more reliable software. In this work the static code metrics for a collection of modules contained within eleven NASA data sets are used with a Support Vector Machine classifier. A rigorous sequence of pre-processing steps were applied to the data prior to classification, including the balancing of both classes (defective or otherwise) and the removal of a large number of repeating instances. The Support Vector Machine in this experiment yields an average accuracy of 70% on previously unseen data.
