ACCELERATING OPEN SOURCE QUALITY

In collaboration with Stanford University, Coverity is establishing a new baseline for software quality and security in open source. Under a contract with the Department of Homeland Security, we apply the latest innovations in automated defect detection to uncover some of the most critical types of bugs found in software.
     
       TOTAL NUMBER OF DEFECTS FIXED (SINCE 03/06/2006):  
  6,035

Amanda's developers fix over 40% of the Scan's detected defects with a single reading of the Scan analysis for that issue.
The red defects were MEMORY LEAKs. In the coming weeks and months, we'll be providing additional information on this Amanda graph, and graphs for other projects. We will also provide more detailed examinations of the progress projects have made, and how the analysis is being used.

Other charts are available. See the list under Progress Charts in the navbar.
