In addition, a misinterpretation of Weyuker{\textquoteright}s (1988) properties is noted.}, keywords = {measurement, metrics;, software, testing;program, validation;program, verification;software}, isbn = {0098-5589}, doi = {10.1109/32.585506}, author = {Morasca,S. and Briand,L.C. and Basili, Victor R. and Weyuker,E.J. and Zelkowitz, Marvin V and Kitchenham,B. and Lawrence Pfleeger,S. and Fenton,N.} }
