GrimoireLab: A toolset for software development analytics.

ABSTRACT:

Background

After many years of research on software repositories, the knowledge for building mature, reusable tools that perform data retrieval, storage and basic analytics is readily available. However, there is still room to improvement in the area of reusable tools implementing this knowledge.

Goal

To produce a reusable toolset supporting the most common tasks when retrieving, curating and visualizing data from software repositories, allowing for the easy reproduction of data sets ready for more complex analytics, and sparing the researcher or the analyst of most of the tasks that can be automated.

Method

Use our experience in building tools in this domain to identify a collection of scenarios where a reusable toolset would be convenient, and the main components of
