摘要

开源软件(OSS)开发被认为是确保可接受的软件质量水平的有效方法。质量改进的一个方面涉及到缺陷密度和其他开源软件度量之间的潜在关系的检测。本文对缺陷密度与下载数量、软件大小和开发人员数量这三种流行的存储库度量之间的关系进行了实证研究。这种关系是通过检查从SourceForge.net检索的44个随机选择的开源软件项目来探索的。通过应用简单和多元线性回归分析，结果显示缺陷密度与开发人员数量和软件规模之间存在统计学上显著的关系。然而，尽管有理论上的期望，在OSS项目中缺陷密度和下载数量之间并没有发现显著的关系。

A Study on Defect Density of Open Source Software

Open source software (OSS) development is considered an effective approach to ensuring acceptable levels of software quality. One facet of quality improvement involves the detection of potential relationship between defect density and other open source software metrics. This paper presents an empirical study of the relationship between defect density and download number, software size and developer number as three popular repository metrics. This relationship is explored by examining forty-four randomly selected open source software projects retrieved from SourceForge.net. By applying simple and multiple linear regression analysis, the results reveal a statistically significant relationship between defect density and number of developers and software size jointly. However, despite theoretical expectations, no significant relationship was found between defect density and number of downloads in OSS projects.
