Abstract
In this paper, we propose an innovative suite of metrics
based on a class abstraction that uses a taxonomy for OO
classes (CAT) to capture aspects of software complexity
through combinations of class characteristics. We empiri-
cally validate their ability to predict fault prone classes us-
ing fault data for six versions of the Java-based open-source
Eclipse Integrated Development Environment. We conclude
that this proposed CAT metric suite, even though it treats
classes in groups rather than individually, is as e�ective as
the traditional Chidamber and Kemerer metrics in identify-
ing fault-prone classes.
