Abstract

The validation and verification of software is typically a costly part of the development. A possibility to reduce costs is to concentrate these activities on the fault-prone components of the system. A classification approach is proposed that identifies these components based on detailed UML models. For this mainly existing code metrics are tailored to be applicable to models and are combined to a suite. Two industrial case studies confirm the ability of the approach to identify fault-prone components.
