Would be cool if they could quantity the gains in productivity - eg before we put in the static analysis we had x level of software defects, following these improvements we saw a drop to level y. Trying to introduce similar improvements at my current place but it’s a hard sell without data

- merlinsbrain 7y agoThe link doesn’t work, I’m interested to read it though.
- mdibiase 7y agoTry this link. It should be the same article as linked previously. http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~junfeng/14fa-e6121/papers/coverity.pdf http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~junfeng/14fa-e6121/papers/coveri...
- joatmon-snoo 7y agoWhoops! Should've noticed that was an ephemeral link, but yes, mdibiase@ linked the one I meant to. It's Coverity's "A Few Billion Lines of Code Later" ACM paper.
