LEAN - Experimental Software Quality Laboratory

The LEAN Laboratory carries out research on software quality and experimental software engineering, specifically on topics related to software evolution and maintainability, refactoring, continuous integration and software reuse.

About us

The LEAN research group started in 2019 with the consolidation of a group of master's and undergraduate students from researcher Carla Ilane Moreira Bezerra. The group began with forming the postgraduate program in Computer Science (PCOMP) at UFC-Campus Quixadá. The LEAN group focuses on research related to software quality and experimental software engineering. Master's and undergraduate students from UFC-Campus Quixadá participate in this group. In addition, the group has collaborations with external researchers Alessandro Garcia (PUC-Rio), Ivan Machado (UFBA), Lincoln Rocha (UFC), and Anderson Uchôa (UFC-Campus Itapajé).
