COMPARING SOFTWARE PROJECTS HAVING BEEN ANALYZED USING DIFFERENT CRITERIA

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for comparing software projects having been analyzed using different criteria. One of the methods includes receiving, for each of a plurality of software projects, source code evaluation criteria that had been used to analyze source code of the respective software project. An overlapping set of source code evaluation criteria is determined. For each of the software projects, source code analysis results which resulted from the overlapping set of source code evaluation criteria are determined, and a respective value of a characteristic metric for the source code analysis results is computed. The respective values of the characteristic metric for each of the software projects are compared, and for at least one of the software projects, an assessment of the software project is output.
