Predicting Fault-proneness of software modules is the essential for cost effective test planning. Various studies have shown the importance of software metrics in predicting fault-proneness of the software.Chidamber and Kemerer (CK) metrics suite is the most widely used metrics suite for the purpose of object-oriented software fault-proneness prediction. The current paper is aimed to review various studies available in literature to predict software fault-proneness using CK metrics.
