Abstract: In this study, a fuzzy logic-based framework has been proposed to predict the situation of the software modules in the earlier phases of software lifecycle. The proposed model has taken into account domain experts' opinions and the available state of different software metrics as inputs. On the basis of dependability measures of software, different modules have been ranked earlier in the development process. Effect of the modules on the reliability, security, and availability of software has been judged by the proposed technique based on Mahalanobis distance metric. The study of software dependability in early phase assists the software developers to take corrective actions, which leads to minimize the testing efforts as well as development time. The proposed technique has been implemented on the promise software engineering repository data set. Performance of the proposed methodology is promising in identifying the fault-prone software modules. The result has also been compared with some known methodologies.
