ABSTRACT Defect prediction is relatively a new research area of software quality assurance . A project team always aims to pro- duce a quality product with zero or few defects. Quality of a product is correlated with the number of defects as well as it is limited by time and by money. So, defect prediction is very important in the field of software quality and software reliability. This paper gives you a vivid description about software defect prediction. It describes the key areas of soft- ware defect prediction practice, and highlights some key open issues for the future. Keywords : Defect Prediction , Software Quality 1. Introduction - What methods or procedures are better to opt for defect identification and localization? Software life cycle is a human activity, so it is impossible - How can we reduce the probability of false alarm? to prevent the injection of defects but it is possible to - How good predictor is in finding actual defective produce the software with few defects. To deliver a de-
