2 Abstract: This paper presents the results of a systematic review conducted to collect evidence on software fault prediction techniques. Different models, methods, algorithms and approaches were studied and conclusion was drawn. The review was conducted by studying the different set of parameters at class level, component level and other software fault prediction techniques considering object oriented design approach. The information was collected from various research papers related to fault prediction and out of 577 mainly 15 studies, which were found most relevant are analyzed. Our results shows that there are few metrics which helps in predicting early fault prediction in software and reduces testing cost, increases reliability, quality of software, helps development managers in decision making to identify and make strategic planning regarding most faulty modules.
