What is the difference between defect density and defect rate?

Defect density measures the number of defects per unit size of the software, while defect rate measures the number of defects over time.

Can you give me an example of how to calculate defect density?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

Sure! If you have 5 defects in a software module that is 1000 lines of code, the defect density would be 5/1000 = 0.005 defects per line.

How is defect rate calculated?

MagicBuddy

Defect rate is calculated by dividing the number of defects by the total number of units tested over a specific period. For example, if you found 10 defects in 2000 test cases over a month, the defect rate would be 10/2000 = 0.005 or 0.5%.

Which metric is more important for software quality?

Both metrics are important; defect density helps identify problematic areas in the code, while defect rate helps assess the effectiveness of testing over time.
