Replication of Software Engineering Experiments

Carrying out empirical studies is slowly becoming widely held to be of importance by the software engineering community. A view perhaps less widely held is that experiments should be replicated externally to both verify and generalise the original results. This paper serves a number of purposes. The need for external replications is established and the role of replication in experimental softwa...

repeatable experiments in software engineering

Welcome to the special issue of Empirical Software Engineering on repeatable experiments in software engineering. Earlier and shorter versions of the papers presented here first appeared at the PROMISE 2007 workshop in Minneapolis. The PROMISE project has been running for 4 years now and aims to create large libraries of repeatable experiments in software engineering. PROMISE is somewhat differ...

Reporting Experiments in Software Engineering

One major problem for integrating study results into a common body of knowledge is the heterogeneity of reporting styles: (1) It is difficult to locate relevant information and (2) important information is often missing. Reporting guidelines are expected to support a systematic, standardized presentation of empirical research, thus improving reporting in order to support readers in (1) finding ...

Introduction to Empirical Experiments in Software Engineering

Empirical experiments play an important role in the evaluation of a software system. To verify or reject whether a software system has a desired effect, empirical experiments have to be performed. This document helps us to understand the steps we need to take to test out our hypothesis about a software system and contains advice for people who want to conduct an empirical experiment.

Informal Aggregation Technique for Software Engineering Experiments

One of the bases for development and standardization in any discipline is continuous empirical verification of knowledge. Thus, empirical replication is required to validate or establish experimental results. When these replications occur, there is also a need to synthesize the different results for a common result. Software Engineering experiments usually fall short of the requirements of the ...
