Capture Recapture Method Of Estimating Latent Defects
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”
“A quickie primer – Capture-recapture and Removal Methods.”
