<p>The validation of software quality metrics lacks statistical</p><p>significance. One reason for this is that the data collection</p><p>requires quite some effort. To help solve this problem,</p><p>we develop tools for metrics analysis of a large number of</p><p>software projects (146 projects with ca. 70.000 classes and</p><p>interfaces and over 11 million lines of code). Moreover, validation</p><p>of software quality metrics should focus on relevant</p><p>metrics, i.e., correlated metrics need not to be validated independently.</p><p>Based on our statistical basis, we identify correlation</p><p>between several metrics from well-known objectoriented</p><p>metrics suites. Besides, we present early results of</p><p>typical metrics values and possible thresholds.</p>
