Software Quality Evaluating System And Methods For Determining An Extent Of Software Code Changes

摘要

A method for determining an extent of code changes upon implementation of a software modification has the steps of: registering the number of software code components and the respective number of lines of code of each software component of a software code before the implementation of the software modification, implementing the software modification by changing the software code, determining the number of software code components that have changed due to the implementation of the software modification, determining the number of lines of code of each software component that have changed due to the implementation of the software modification, and determining an invasiveness value on the basis of the determined number of software code components that have changed and determined number of lines of code that have changed, the invasiveness value being indicative of the extent of software code changes upon implementation of the software modification.
