Abstract

 Estimating a probability that a change will introduce a fault rather
 than enhancements or fix is one of the most challenging problems
 in the area of software engineering.  To approach this task, we
 employ two sources of historical data: software repository and bug
 tracking system.  In my presentation I state motivation of my work,
 introduce basic concepts and describe techniques that let us combine
 both sources of data.  Then I propose an algorithm which decides
 whether a change has introduced a defect.  We are still working on
 employing this information to predict risk of the change.
