Abstract

Software developers engage themselves to develop better software in time. Software quality is achieved when the software is free of defect, timely delivers within a specified budget, and meets customer requirements and ease to maintain. One of the approaches to reduce the software defect is to identify the part of the program that render high coupling which effects software quality. The changes can be done in the portion of the program where the error is likely to occur due to its dependency among the modules and thus put forth some effort on the overall quality of the software artifact. The aim of this paper is to design and develop a software tool that finds the software complexity that may take place due to inheritance coupling at the package level and visualize the same in graph. Based upon the complexity value the developers can change the code at the earlier phase itself and thus lower the complexity to some extent. This will help the software developers to minimize their time and cost for the development of quality software.
