Abstract

There have been various attempts to establish common defect classification systems in standards, academia and industry. The resulted classifications are partly similar but also contain variations and none of which is accepted as a basic tool in software projects. This position paper summarises the work on defect classifications so far, proposes a set of challenges and the direction to a solution.
