Software quality is a field of study and practice that describes the desirable attributes of software products. The performance must be perfect without any defects.Software quality metrics are a subset of software metrics that focus on the quality aspects of the product, process, and project.The software defectprediction model helps in early detection of defects and contributes to their efficient removal and producing a quality software system based on several metrics. The main objective of
