Software defect prediction mechanisms for quality enhancement

Abstract

Software engineering is an imperative field that helps to provide a variety of software to the different industrial domains. In this regard, providing quality software is a challenging task. Now a lot of advancements are occurring in this field to enhance the software quality. But still software failures will occur at the development stage. To overcome these difficulties, various failure detection mechanisms were adopted. Among them, software defect prediction is one such mechanism to provide quality software. The efficacious of testing the software and guiding the distribution of resources can effectively enhanced by Software defect prediction (SDP). This research article will provide a complete knowledge about the defect prediction mechanism in the software domain. And also profound analyses were done with the existing literature to know how this mechanism will ameliorate the quality of the software product.
