2. Introduction

Here, the project is described along with its requirements and domain model. This document is updated continuously and developers should contribute with more documentation.

3. Project

Software debugging have a big impact in Software development costs. Developers need to focus their resources to fix defects faster, by knowing the components that are more faulty. Schwa is a project that aims to give defect information, by Mining Software Repositories. Existing fault localization tools can benefit from Schwa defect probabilities (a priori), such as Crowbar.

4. Requirements

4.1 Actors

Developer Is a Software Engineer that needs Schwa to track defects.
Crowbar Is a tool that relies on Schwa to obtain defect probabilities.

4.2 Functional requirements

ID Name Description Points Priority
US01 GIT repositories As a developer, I can analyze Git repositories, because is the most popular CVS. 5 High
US02 Java Projects As a developer, I can analyze my Java projects, because is a popular programming language. 8 High
US03 Interface As a developer, I can invoke Schwa by command line and get a Sunburst chart, because is an effective way of displaying defects. 3 Medium

4.3 Non-functional requirements

ID Name Description
R01 Performance It should scale to big repositories.

5. Domain model

The domain that Schwa operates, is a repository that can be easily modeled in the following diagram. A diff is a change made in a commit to a component, that can be for an instance, a method added, modified, removed or renamed.
