SDE 5.0-0 Metrics

This document shows the metrics for SDE 5.0-0 release. All data are collected from SDE development structures and results are presented in Excel. The comparisons are done with SDE 4.0-0.
The metrics is divided in several parts:

SDE 5.0-0 Source Code Metrics shows the number of files and lines on the source code, i.e. it shows the total size of the product.
SDE 5.0-0 Changed Lines Metrics shows the number of changed files and changed lines, i.e. it shows the amount of changes done in the product.
SDE 5.0-0 Change Requests Metrics lists and categorizes Change Requests, i.e. it shows the type of changes done in the product.
SDE 5.0-0 Product Metrics shows data about the SDE product, i.e. about the package delivered to users.

SDE 5.0-0 Source Code Metrics

The metrics shows the size of the development structure of SDE. The SDE development structure is divided in several parts – systems. Number of files and a number of lines for each system are shown. Finally the total number of files and lines are shown. The table does not include the documentation written in FrameMaker and some data files. Source code of GNU RCS public domain is also included into metrics (274 files with 132976 lines). This code is not developed internally, but slightly modified. OTHER files are different configuration files, part of make files, templates, etc.

*File Types*	*Files*	*Lines*
*C files*	170	78618
*C++ files*	189	55914
*man pages*	150	17502
*TeleUse files*	6	14826
*help files*	46	1328
*Script files*	217	61214
*OTHER*	222	71611
TOTAL	1008	301013

The total number of lines does not include the documentation. Different data files (like fonts, tex format of help files, etc.) are not included.

SDE 5.0-0 Changed Files and Lines

This metrics shows how many files and how many lines of source code and data have been changed. The metrics is related to the amount of work put in the new release.

*Status*	*Files*	*Lines*
*New*	114	3337
*Modified*	527	134304
*Same*	465	146500
TOTAL	1278	284141

SDE 5.0-0 Change Requests Metrics

This metrics shows how many functional changes and what type of changes are implemented in the release. The metrics also shows how the requirements have been changed during time and in which tempo they have been solved.

Number of CRs:

There were totally 239 CRs, of which 199 are solved. The rest is postponed.

CR Types:

The number of CRs of the Error type actually larger than the real number of fixed error that were present in SDE 4.0. A lot CRs of this type describe the problem that occurred when HP-UX version and Softbench version had been changed.

CRs created and completed during the project development process:

SDE 5.0-0 Product Metrics

The metrics shows the size of the delivered product and the amount of changes seen from a user’s point of view. The product include executable files, man pages, help files, different templates and documentation files. The column obsolete shows files that have been removed - however, most of them have been moved from a platform dependent directory to a common directory where symbolic links were placed. This change is done since SDE 5.0-0 does not support HP 4000 series.

*SDE 5.0-0 Product Files*
*File Types*	*Files*	*New*	*Modified*	*Same*	*Obsolete*	*Total*
*C files*	4	0	1	3	0	4
*man pages*	139	4	134	1	19	139
*help files*	46	8	18	20	11	46
*Executable*	182	11	154	17	115	182
*OTHER*	112	18	60	34	84	112
TOTAL	483	41	367	75	229	483

The metrics shows that the majority of files are modified or replaced. The metrics corresponds to the character of the product. SDE 5.0-0 is much improved, and adjusted to new versions of Softbench and HP-UX. There are not too many new functions, but most of the existing functions are improved.
