I'm currently working on Coccinelle and Herodotos.
  • Coccinelle is a software which enables bug finding and software evolution thanks to source-to-source program transformations and analysis.
  • Herodotos relies on Coccinelle to find bugs on several versions of software projects. It then correlates the bugs across the studied versions of each project. Finally, Herodotos builds and computes graphs and statistics about the bugs. We currently computes information such as average lifetime, evolution of the number of bugs, evolution of the bug density, number of bugs introduced by a new file, number of bugs removed by deleting a file. Herodotos could be used to compare several kinds of defects between multiple software projects.
