EN Context. Software data collection precedes analysis which, in turn,requires data science related skills. Software defect prediction is hardly used in in-dustrial projects as a quality assurance and cost reduction mean.Objectives. There are many studies and several tools which help in various data anal-ysis tasks but there is still neither an open source tool nor standardized approach.Results. We developed Defect Prediction for software systems (DePress), which is anextensible software measurement, and data integration framework which can be usedfor prediction purposes (e.g. defect prediction, effort prediction) and software changesanalysis (e.g. release notes, bug statistics, commits quality). DePress is based on theKNIME project and allows building workflows in a graphic, end-user friendly manner. Conclusions. We presContext.
