Abstract :
Models used to estimate the number of residual software faults are examined. The models were developed by universities and industries in Japan. It has been shown that the hypergeometric distribution model can be applied to real data of different types. The relationship between the model based on the hypergeometric distribution and those based on the nonhomogeneous Poisson process has been revealed
