Abstract :
We propose a new and straight forward approach to measure design quality of object-oriented software systems. We use well known object oriented design quality metrics and find correlation among them to formulate a quality rank that is an indicator to the overall quality of any object oriented software. We tested our proposed formula on several open source software systems of different levels of design quality and validate by comparing the test result with expected levels of design quality.
