Mil & Aero Magazine features EZ-Metrix

2011-07-29T06:22:00.000-07:00

In a July 5, 2011 article, author John Keller lists the company that invented EZ-Metrix^®, James Heires Consulting, Inc. in an article about software verification tools.

"Because code counters like EZ-Metrix are routinely used in highly analytical tasks such as software verification, it stands to reason that the Military and Aerospace industries are interested in EZ-Metrix", said President James Heires, PMP.

EZ-Metrix to be featured on Quality Conversations

2009-10-03T16:12:00.000-07:00

Steve Wilson, a colleague and fellow measurement practitioner, hosts a radio program called Quality Conversations: The Global Voice of Quality. Mr. Wilson's program is available on the Blog Talk Radio website. Steve has hosted many notable experts in the quality industry in the past, and hosts a website called Quality By Design.

Now, EZ-Metrix gets the spotlight, in a show entitled EZ-Metrix: A Web-Based Code Counting Utility. Steve and I will discuss software quality, how metrics can support a software quality initiative, and why software size measurement is missing from most Fortune 500 companies' Key Performance Indicators. And finally, how EZ-Metrix can help to fill the void left by these complex industry dynamics.

This is a recorded show, and is available for immediate download here.

Looking forward to your comments, questions and quality conversations.

Regards,
James

EZ-Metrix v4.1 Ready Now!

2008-07-25T18:46:00.000-07:00

The latest and greatest EZ-Metrix is now ready for immediate enjoyment...
Our development team has worked hard or weeks to bring you the latest product enhancements.
EZ-Metrix now boasts the following new comparison mode features:
1. Detailed line counts are now reported for added files
2. Detailed line counts are now reported for deleted files
3. Counts of changed lines of code and comments are more accurate than ever
4. Performance is up to 10% faster than v4.0

We hope these changes make your work more productive and efficient. Drop us a line when you have a chance to look over the new version - we love to hear from users.

EZ-Metrix enhancements coming soon.

2008-07-18T06:25:00.000-07:00

The next release of EZ-Metrix (v4.1) is now under development. Included in this release are two changes that are sure to please most users.

1) Comparison line counts for added and deleted files. This new feature will report measures for all comparison categories, if a file is either added or removed from a baseline list. In other words, if a file is added to an existing list of files, for example, then EZ-Metrix will report how many files, lines of code and comments were added.

2) Comparison changed lines more accurate. A combination of factors may be encountered that could throw off EZ-Metrix' code counting engine, resulting in changed line counts that are incorrect. This enhancement will correct this situation, so that changed counts are correct.

We hope you value these changes, and become a better practitioner, as a result.

As always, keep those cards and letters coming - we value your feedback!

Regards,
The EZ-Metrix team.

Updated EZ-Metrix User Guide and Admin Guide available.

2008-02-12T05:43:00.000-08:00

Commensurate with the v4.0 release of EZ-Metrix, we have made available updated versions of the User Guide and Admin Guide.

These documents are available on the EZ-Metrix website now, and should be consulted for general how-to information, as well as in-depth discucssions of metrics definitions and how to analyze the results you get from EZ-Metrix.

Enjoy!
-- the EZ-Metrix team

EZ-Metrix V4.0 is finally here!

2008-02-03T20:31:00.000-08:00

After a long-anticipated wait, EZ-Metrix version 4.0 is finally available!

New features in EZ-Metrix include:

Improved performance - more than 9 times faster than previous versions!
Easier to obtain a free evaluation license.
New and improved site design.
Pre loaded with rules for dozens of popular languages.
More control over user accounts, rules and reports.

Come give us a try. Or if you haven't tried EZ-Metrix yet, what are you waiting for?

ez-metrix.com

Many Thanks!
This release wouldn't have been possible without the direct involvement of Jeff, Roger, Atul, Dmitry, Mahmoud, Sajid, Humayun, and my wife Christine.
Thanks also to client feedback, this product is stronger, faster and better than ever!

New Features coming...

2007-02-26T15:02:00.000-08:00

With a new version of EZ-Metrix in the works, it would be a good time to share some of what is coming in the next version. Although there are many improvements coming, I'll only share the BIG ones here, to keep this blog short and sweet.

Comparison measures will be approximately 9 times faster. The measurement algorithms have been optimized for speed, resulting in a much faster session, without compromising accuracy. Now, if you have a large number of files to compare, your job will be done much faster.
Non-comparison measures will be approximately 7 times faster.
Changed Lines measure (which currently includes both SLOC and comments) will be separated into two measures (Changed lines of code and Changed lines of comments). Don't worry - the legacy Changed Lines measure will be carried forward to stay reverse-compatible with earlier versions...
A set of rules will come pre-configured on all new accounts, saving you the trouble of having to create rules for every programming language you need. The default rule set will include dozens of popular languages supported by EZ-Metrix, which again, will make your job easier.
Rules can be deleted (Admin only). This allows you to reduce the list of supported languages, or to remove an erroneous rule. Since rules are shared across all accounts at a company, this feature is limited to your Admin only.
Restrict Database Purge feature to Admins only. This reduces the likelihood of accidental purging of your data.
Redesigned UI. The aim here is to clean up the interface, and make it easier to use.

We hope you enjoy these new features. Please keep the suggestions coming, since we do listen to your feedback when we implement improvements to EZ-Metrix. Your suggestions count!

Regards,

James

Welcome to the EZ-Metrix® blog!

2007-01-22T15:10:00.000-08:00

Dear EZ-Metrix friends,

Welcome to my brand new web log! I'm glad you are interested enough to visit and hopefully contribute to the discussion. The purpose of this blog is to discuss the EZ-Metrix product and related topics.

EZ-Metrix was conceived and developed and is owned by James Heires Consulting, Inc. You can read all about the product here or buy it here (you can also get a FREE evaluation license) !

EZ-Metrix is a web-based code counting utility for people who develop software professionally. Used by developers, consultants and managers alike, EZ-Metrix is instrumental when used as part of a software measurement program, or to simplify the job of the software project manager. Estimation and project tracking are both facilitated with software size measurements. EZ-Metrix helps answer the question: "How much software has been developed (or tested, verified, released)?"

If you are an EZ-Metrix user, please use this blog to discuss enhancements, observations or defects, since I will be monitoring this space for helpful feedback on the product. Please keep it clean and focused - this is a moderated blog, after all...

Thanks,
James T. Heires, PMP
