Fault Prediction in Software Modules

A system that predicts which software modules are likely to contain faults.

A system that predicts which software modules are likely to contain faults. As a reference project it shows how a system like this is put together in practice, which parts matter and how they are tested, so that a developer can learn from it and build on it.

It suits learners who want to practise engineering discipline: requirements, design, implementation, automated testing and measuring software quality.

The main parts are a clear requirements and design document, the working implementation, automated tests with quality metrics, and a report on what the measurements show. The reference build uses Python, Git, Docker, and pytest, with a clear project structure, setup instructions and sample data so that it can be run and extended.
