Capture Recapture Method Of Estimating Latent Defects

September 15, 2008 · Filed Under General  - 0 Comment(s)

I recently saw a fascinating paper on capture-recapture method of estimating defects by Joseph R. Scholield.  He quoted a number of other articles as well including:

“CRM can be used to predict the number of estimated defects remaining in a product. This estimate can then be used to make quantified, data-driven decision on how to proceed with a software product. IFPUG MetricViews; Winter 2008
“Used by Jerry Weinberg to estimate remaining typos based on how many his reviewers found. Beyond Defect Removal: Latent Defect Estimation with Capture Recapture Method;
CrossTalk, August 2007″
Try this: Something Fishy (statistics) from PBS”
