Although GQM has proven itself useful in a variety of industrial settings, one recognized weakness is the difficulty for GQM users to link software measurement goals to higher-level goals of the organization in which the software is being developed. This linkage is important, as it helps to justify software measurement efforts and allows measurement data to contribute to higher-level decisions. GQM+strategies provides mechanisms for explicitly linking software measurement goals, to higher-level goals for the software organization, and further to goals and strategies at the level of the entire business.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133699552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Big organizations can have several development teams with their products being tested by overloaded test teams. In such situations, test team managers must be able to properly plan their schedules and resources. Also, estimates for the required test execution effort can be an additional criterion for test selection, since effort may be restrictive in practice. Nevertheless, this information is usually not available for test cases never executed before. This paper proposes an estimation model for test execution effort based on the test specifications. For that, we define and validate a measure of size and execution complexity of test cases. This measure is obtained from test specifications written in a controlled natural language. We evaluated the model through an empirical study on the mobile application domain, which results suggested an accuracy improvement when compared with estimations based only on historical test productivity.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124877992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates one specific aspect of this larger problem. It addresses the impact of using statecharts for testing class clusters that exhibit a state-dependent behavior. More precisely, it reports on a controlled experiment that investigates their impact on testing fault-detection effectiveness. Code-based, structural testing is compared to statechart-based testing and their combination is investigated to determine whether they are complementary. Results show that there is no significant difference between the fault detection effectiveness of the two test strategies but that they are significantly more effective when combined. This implies that a cost-effective strategy would specify statechart-based test cases early on, execute them once the source code is available, and then complete them with test cases based on code coverage analysis.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134029335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research synthesizes software engineering and Gestalt principles of similarity, proximity, continuity for the purpose of discovering whether certain visual attributes of diagrams can affect the accuracy and efficiency of understanding the diagram. The experiment tested whether two dependent variables, accuracy and response time, were significantly affected by independent variables, diagram type (simple 1, simple2, complex), Gestalt principles (good vs. bad), and question order (forward/backward). The results of this study indicated that the Gestalt principles did affect the comprehension in the complex diagrams. Post-hoc analysis results indicated that number of bends per line, length of line in inches, number of lines crossing, boxes per diagram, and number of lines per diagram contributed to the ability of the subjects to comprehend the diagrams.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123364982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meaningful justification for an IV&V budget and evidence that activities performed actually provide high assurance has been difficult to provide from plans created (generally ad hoc) by experts. JAXA now uses the \"strategic IV&V planning and cost model\" to addresses these issues and complement expert planning activities. This research presents a grounded empirical study that compares plans generated by the strategic model to those created by experts on several past IV&V projects. Through this research, we found that the model generated plan typically is a superset of the experts ' plan. We found that experts tended to follow the most cost-effective route but had a bias in their particular activity selections. Ultimately we found increased confidence in both expert and model based planning and now have new tools for assessing and improving them.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113995385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Increasingly, automated fault detection (AFD) tools are providing developers with prompt feedback on recently-introduced faults to reduce fault fix time. If however, the frequency and content of this feedback does not match the developer's goals and/or workflow, the developer may ignore the information. We conducted a controlled study with 18 developers to explore what factors are used by developers to decide whether or not to address a fault when notified of the error. The findings of our study lead to several conjectures about the design of AFD tools to effectively notify developers of faults in the coding phase. The AFD tools should present fault information that is relevant to the primary programming task with accurate and precise descriptions. The fault severity and the specific timing of fault notification should be customizable. Finally, the AFD tool must be accurate and reliable to build trust with the developer.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130996525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is proposed that TDD is one of the most fundamental practices enabling the development of software in an agile and iterative manner. Both the literature and practice suggest that TDD practice yields several benefits. Essentially, it is claimed that TDD leads to an improved software design, which has a dramatic impact on the maintainability and further development of the system. The impact of TDD on program design has seldom come under the researchers' focus. This paper reports the results from a comparative case study of three software development projects where the effect of TDD on program design was measured using object-oriented metrics. The results show that the effect of TDD on program design was not as evident as expected, but the test coverage was significantly superior to iterative test-last development.","PeriodicalId":124420,"journal":{"name":"First International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2007)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120882190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
