Metrics Suite for Java Class Complexity Based on UML
Han Xiao · 2007
The complexity of software products is an important aspect in software measurement field.The complexity has a close relationship with the developing cost,time spending and the number of detects which a program may exist.OOA and OOD had been widely used,so the requirement of measuring software complexity written in object-oriented language is emerging.UML is a modeling language for OOA and OOD,it had been accepted as an industry standard.Then,this paper presented a suite of class complexity metrics based on UML class diagram that was adapted to Java,and verifies them with a suite of evaluation rules suggested by Weyuker.
