MethodologyThe largest problem that a project manager faces when dealing with software is how to managequality [9]. Poor quality often leads to schedule and cost overruns that can jeopardize futureworkload. Of the many factors that go into software development, the most prominent factors areexperience of the employee (A), complexity of the change (B), and the lines of code in thechange (C). Based on these three factors, the project manager should be able to predict whethera particular change will encounter quality issues in the future. By predicting when there
