MetricHunter: A software metric dataset generator utilizing SourceMonitor upon public GitHub repositories

Version control systems are pervasively consulted nowadays to obtain software metric datasets. Accordingly, machine learning is applied predict different aspects of a including quality monitoring, influence analysis, etc. However, construction dataset challenging and the content may affect success learning-based models. In this study, we propose tool, MetricHunter, which able produce platform/language specific datasets that can be used for predicting features newly created software. The proposed tool developed by C# programming language utilizing known gathering i.e. SourceMonitor, GitHub REST API public repositories. Thus, one construct proper from graphical user interface simply specifying or target platform. outputs on set repositories validated investigating automatically generated attribute values comparing them with measurements tools as well values.
