What is code turmoil?
Code turmoil is a metric indicating the number of lines of code changed, added and deleted from on revision of a code body to another. In our case we are measuring the amount of turmoil between two specified revisions of a subversion repository. Code turmoil is often used as in indication of how stable a project is. High turmoil means a higher possibility of new bugs being introduced and indicates lots of new changes that must be tested before release. Given this logic it is expected that code turmoil would get progressively lower as a release approaches.
What's in the graph
In order to demonstrate the results obtained with our tool as well as to make use of it we have used CTMT to measure the turmoil introduced into our repository each day. This graph shows how many lines of code were changed, added and deleted every day in SVNTurmoil.pl.
This graph displays the total turmoil in SVNTurmoil.pl.
Here is the daily turmoil in TestHarness.pm
This graph displays the total turmoil in TestHarness.pm.
