Abstract
The relationships between most of the existing coupling and cohesion measures for object-oriented (OO) systems, and the fault-proneness of OO system classes were empirically explored to gain a better understanding of the relationship between existing design measurement in OO systems and the quality of the software developed. The study is a replication of an analogous study conducted in a university environment with systems developed by students. To draw more general conclusions and to (dis)confirm the results obtained there, the study was replicated using data collected on an industrial system developed by professionals.
