Abstract: [This abstract is based on the author's abstract.]A method is described for determining qualitative and quantitative measures of software quality based upon defect test execution densities. The method relies upon ratios of discovered defects to the number of tests conducted and is derived from simple power law distributions. Two case studies of a complex telecommunications system illustrate the method. Direct correlation between the test density predictions and the software defects discovered in first field deployments is shown.
