摘要

对设计进行建模以提高软件系统的质量和可维护性的好处一直被提倡和认可。然而，关于这一点的经验证据仍然很少。在本文中，我们通过在一个大的开源GitHub项目样本中报告UML建模和软件缺陷倾向之间关系的实证研究来填补这一空白。使用统计建模，并控制混淆变量，我们显示在其存储库中包含UML模型跟踪的项目，平均而言，与没有UML模型跟踪的项目相比，在统计上有少量不同数量的软件缺陷(从它们的问题跟踪器中挖掘)。

Does UML Modeling Associate with Lower Defect Proneness?: A Preliminary Empirical Investigation

The benefits of modeling the design to improve the quality and maintainability of software systems have long been advocated and recognized. Yet, the empirical evidence on this remains scarce. In this paper, we fill this gap by reporting on an empirical study of the relationship between UML modeling and software defect proneness in a large sample of open-source GitHub projects. Using statistical modeling, and controlling for confounding variables, we show that projects containing traces of UML models in their repositories experience, on average, a statistically minorly different number of software defects (as mined from their issue trackers) than projects without traces of UML models.
