Abstract

Most of the open-source projects consist of open-source bug repositories. Users report the bugs frequently to these open-source bug repositories. The bugs are typically non-technical and cannot be assigned to the correct class. Triaging these bugs is extremely time-consuming. Developers are expected to be expertise in specific areas. For example, some developers are experts of GUI and while others in Java applications. Assigning a particular bug to respective developer could save time and would help the developers according to their requirements. However, assigning correct bug to respective developer is quite difficult for triager without knowing the actual class, to which the bug belongs. Bugs are inevitable and bug triaging is a challenging, time-consuming, tedious and expensive task, particularly the software bugs. Larger software projects include more of incoming bug reports than in smaller projects. Triaging these bug reports is a tough and time consuming. Part of the bug triaging process is assigning a newly arrived bug report to a developer who can successfully resolve the bug. Automatic assignment of the bug to the right developer based on the developer’s experience and skills for the bug fixation is achieved.
