Chromium Dataset

Well, so where is the data?

The Chromium project contain many interesting aspects. Their development methodology makes use of several tools to handle developer interaction and keep track of all the issues that are going on at the same time.

The team uses the following tools:

• GIT for version control: (http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/get-the-code)
• Google Code for bug tracking system: (https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list)
• Code inspections and reviews (https://codereview.chromium.org/)

The following is a diagram that presents the relation of the different data points we are able to extract from these sources and how they might be used to answer some of our research questions. Take note that this is a work in progress and some of the metrics and question might vary.
