  • Abstract
    Formal statistical analysis of defect databases for two commercial client-server products for disparate applications - C-language parsing and geophysical modeling - tests the hypothesis that defects in the graphical client mask more important underlying defects in the computational server. It also quantifies the benefit of continued testing after delivery in terms of reduced software defect densities apparent to end users.
