Despite the interest and the increasing number of static analysis tools for detecting defects in software systems, there is still no consensus on the actual gains that such tools introduce in software development projects. Therefore, this article reports a study carried out to evaluate the degree of correspondence and correlation between postrelease defects (i.e., field defects) and warnings issued by FindBugs, a bug finding tool widely used in Java systems.
