Abstract

Metrics extent assured properties of a software system by representing them to numbers (or to other symbols) rendering to well-defined, objective measurement rules. Examining aspect-oriented systems in order to estimate their quality advances its significance as the paradigm remains to increase in popularity. Subsequently, numerous aspect-oriented metrics have been proposed to estimate different aspects of these systems. Aspect Cognitive Complexity Metric are the newly arisen area of complexity metric. This paper describes AOP-CCMAT (Aspect Oriented Programming - Cognitive Complexity Metric Analysis Tool) that is meant for automatically calculate the Cognitive Complexity metrics. Evaluating the AO metrics based on cognitive complexity is supportive for expecting the maintainability of the software. The measurement of Cognitive Complexity is also necessary to calculate the software quality.
