Methods and apparatus for determining software component sizes associated with errors
First Claim
1. A method of automatically generating data regarding errors in a software system, the software system including one or more software components, the method comprising:
- examining contents of one or more files indicating one or more errors in the software system to determine one or more of the software components responsible for the errors and a number of the errors attributed to each of the software components determined to be responsible for the errors; and
determining a size of the one or more software components responsible for the errors.

Abstract
Provided is a method of automatically generating data regarding errors in a software system. Contents of one or more files indicating errors in the software system are examined to determine software components responsible for the errors. The number of errors attributed to each of the software components responsible for the errors is determined. A size of the software component responsible for an error is also determined. In one embodiment, the size of the software components responsible of errors is correlated with the number of errors attributed to the software components.
