Empirical Evaluations of Usage-Based Reading and Fault Content Estimation for Software Inspections

摘要

This thesis describes six empirical investigations of two techniques applied to software inspections, namely reading techniques and fault content estimation techniques. The first part of the thesis presents a series of experiments of a novel reading technique called usage-based reading. The second part investigates fault content estimation applied to the software inspection process. The estimation methods used are capture-recapture and curve fitting.
