Abstract

Software artifact tracing from various software development phases has been utilized to maintain software quality. It leads to the popularity of the development of traceability tools to substitute manual labor tracing, which is prone to error. Along with the growth of software traceability tool development, traceability dataset needs are rising. Exclusively a few realistic traceability datasets are available for public access, guiding a practical degree of traceability tools for real projects. The scarcity is primarily due to the time and effort required to create the dataset. This paper presents efforts in developing a new traceability dataset from the education domain, namely Monthes. It involved artifact extraction and tracing activities from an established thesis monitoring application that professionals developed. Apart from assembling three artifacts, i.e., requirements, class diagram, and source codes, it results in three sets of traceability ground truths: requirement-to-code, requirement-to-design, and design-to-code. The software artifacts and ground truths would help researchers test the performance of their traceability tools or enhanced methods involving three phases of software development.
