However, excessive amount of time is required therein to investigate and fix prioritized warnings because some are not actually true positives or are irrelevant to the code context and topic. In this paper, we propose a warning prioritization technique that reflects various latent topics from bug-related code blocks. Our main aim is to build a prioritization model that comprises separate warning priorities depending on the topic of the change sets to identify the number of true positive warnings. For the performance evaluation of the proposed model, we employ a performance metric called warning detection rate, widely used in many warning prioritization studies, and compare the proposed model with other competitive techniques. Additionally, the effectiveness of our model is verified via the application of our technique to eight industrial projects of a real global company.展开更多
