Abstract

Software developing communities are shifting to open source software (OSS) because of the reason that software development takes place in successive releases, thereby improving its quality and reliability. Multi-release development of OSS can provide an opportunity to inculcate the dynamic needs of the user in a very short span of time to survive in the market. In spite of having these benefits, numerous challenges can be faced during the multi-release OSS development. Some of the challenges can be the generation of errors during the addition of new features. To address the changing fault detection process, a change point phenomenon is considered so as to give more practicality to the model. In this article, we present a general framework for multi-release OSS modelling incorporating imperfect debugging and change points. Parameter estimation and model validation is done on the three releases of Apache, an open source software project.
