Abstract
According to one embodiment, a software defect forecasting system comprises a software forecasting tool operable to receive a number of attributes associated with a software development project from a user interface. The attributes are associated with a software development project in which a software product is developed over a period of time. The attributes are received prior to the beginning of the software development project such that an anticipated quantity of defects may be estimated prior to the beginning of the software development project. Moreover, the software defect forecasting system may estimate the anticipated quantity of defects for some, most, or all of the various development phases of the software development project.
