Summary
Software engineering has matured as a discipline, and this implies the use of contrasted methods to empirically validate and contextualize the theories and knowledge formulated in the field.
Description
These methods form the basis of the so-called empirical software engineering, and are based on the collection and analysis of data and experience that can be used to characterize, evaluate and relate elements of software engineering, such as proposed techniques, formulated theories and developed technologies. This course will provide an overview of the most commonly used empirical research methods in software engineering: what they are, for what purposes, what limitations they present, how to know which method is the most appropriate in a given context, etc. The methods will be illustrated with examples in whose development the students will actively participate.
