Automatically prioritizing software development tasks extracted from codes could provide significant technical and organizational advantages. Tools exist for the automatic extraction of tasks, but they still lack the ability to capture their mutual dependencies; hence, the capability to prioritize them. Solving this important puzzle is the goal of the presented industrial challenge.

Simple detection of bugs, defects or anomalies during software development is not enough - it is necessary to apply corrective actions to eliminate them. To find out whether an anomaly exists in any software, we can measure the quality attributes using software metrics. The main goal of this paper was to find out and explain how to meaningfully attribute metrics to useful corrective actions.
