The Correlation among Software Complexity Metrics with Case Study

Software Engineering 2014-08-21 v1

Abstract

People demand for software quality is growing increasingly, thus different scales for the software are growing fast to handle the quality of software. The software complexity metric is one of the measurements that use some of the internal attributes or characteristics of software to know how they effect on the software quality. In this paper, we cover some of more efficient software complexity metrics such as Cyclomatic complexity, line of code and Hallstead complexity metric. This paper presents their impacts on the software quality. It also discusses and analyzes the correlation between them. It finally reveals their relation with the number of errors using a real dataset as a case study.
