The paper aims to define a novel methodology to evaluate the quality of software systems. The methodology is applying the following steps: evaluate object oriented metrics, select quality category, and evaluate quality category. The approach to software quality evaluation is based on an ontology that was defined for the ISO25010 standard. The quality evaluation is enhanced by taking into consideration several object-oriented (OO) metrics and including them into the ontology. A case study is presented regarding the impact of OO metrics on the reliability category. The paper presents preliminary results on the methodology and concludes on the benefits of using an ontology to derive new facts in the context of software quality assessment.
