Abstract

This chapter provides an introduction on feature generation and engineering for software analytics. Specifically, we show how domain-specifc features can be designed and used to automate three software engineering tasks: (1) detecting defective software modules (defect prediction), (2) identifying crashing mobile app release (crash release prediction), and (3) predicting who will leave a software team (developer turnover prediction). For each of the three tasks, different sets of features are extracted from a diverse set of software artifacts, and used to build predictive models.
