Abstract
Techniques are described for measuring or quantifying the logging behavior in the source code of a computer program. In particular, the techniques select a method identified as exhibiting the ideal logging behavior in a computer program and then compute the overall logging quality score for the entire computer program based on the deviation in logging behaviors between the selected method and all other methods in the source code of the project. This overall logging quality score can be compared to various benchmarks of existing projects with high logging quality. If the software logging quality is found to be low, various steps can be taken by the developers to improve the logging before the software release.
