Abstract
Open-source software repositories contain lots of useful information related to software development, software design, and software’s common error patterns. To access the software quality an automated software fault data extraction and preparation, which can be used for further prediction is still a major issue. Prediction of software fault has recently attracted the attention of software engineers. These prediction models require training fault data of projects. The fault training data contains information of software metrics and related bug information, and these data have to be prepared for each project. But it is not so easy to collect and prepare the fault data for the prediction model. We developed an automatic tool which extracts and prepares fault data for the prediction models. By using these automatic tools, we have extracted the data from the open-source projects developed in various languages. Extraction of fault data of various projects which includes source code and related defects from open-source software repository is performed. Various versions of open-source project software were taken from source forge and used for this purpose.
