Abstract

This paper is an experience report of a software process model which will help in preventing defects through defect prediction. The paper gives a vivid description of how the model aligns itself to business goals and also achieves various quality and productivity goals by predicting the number and type of defects well in advance and corresponding preventive action taken to reduce the occurrence of defects. Data have been collected from the case study of a live project in INFOSYS Technologies Limited, India.
