Comprehension of Defect Pattern at Code Construction Phase during Software Development Process

摘要

Ever since the introduction of computers, technological advancement has taken an exponential form. Thus, development of software which attains total customer satisfaction is one of the mandatory needs of any software industry. Delivery of defect free software is one of the primary requisites to achieve the aforementioned objective. In order to comprehend defect facets, it is essential to have knowledge of defect pattern at various phases of software development. This paper therefore provides a comprehensive analysis of occurrence of defect pattern which are obtained through a case study carried out in one of the sampled leading software industry. This empirical investigation is a throw light for the project personnel to formulate effective strategies towards reduction of defect occurrences and thereby improve quality, productivity and sustainability of the software products.
