QMetric - a metric tool suite for the evaluation of software process data

Configuration and change request management systems offer valuable information for the assessment of process quality characteristics. The definition of appropriate metrics that address the information needs of an organization is an intricate task. We present the QMetric tool suite which provides a general infrastructure for specifying metrics, relating them to organization-specific quality models, and automatic evaluation based on empirical comparison data.
