Abstract
<p>Bug reports contain essential information for fixing problems that occur in software. Many studies have proposed methods for automatic analysis of bug reports. One such task could affect the completion of software bug fixing, known as “bug dependency”. Although this problem was mentioned by many researches, most of them discussed about the related bugs but not really dealt with dependency issue in bug reports. One possible solution used for addressing this issue is to assemble all relevant/dependent bug reports together before analysis of the next processing stages. This study presents a method of assembling dependent bug reports. The main mechanism is called “threshold-based similarity analysis”, and the three similarity techniques of cosine similarity (CS) multi aspect TF (MATF), and BM25 are compared with feedback, precision and likelihood value. As the BM25 with the threshold as 0.5 gives the best results, it was used to compare with the state of the art method. The results show that our method increases precision and likelihood values by 12% and 12.4% respectively. Therefore, our results can be used to encourage developers to recognize all dependent bugs in the same problem domain.</p>
