CHANGES IN reproducer VERSION 0.1.9

NEW FEATURES

• added unit tests and assertions (run-time tests)

UPDATED FEATURES

• updated data set MadeyskiKitchenham.EUBASdata and functions getEffectSizesABBA, effectSizeCI

CHANGES IN reproducer VERSION 0.1.8

NEW FEATURES

• added function getTheoreticalEffectSizeVariancesABBA

UPDATED FEATURES

• updated functions getSimulationData, plotOutcomesForIndividualsInEachSequenceGroup, getEffectSizesABBA, effectSizeCI

CHANGES IN reproducer VERSION 0.1.7

  • getEffectSizesABBA
  • getEffectSizesABBAIgnoringPeriodEffect
  • reproduceSimulationResultsBasedOn500Reps1000Obs
  • percentageInaccuracyOfLargeSampleVarianceApproximation
  • proportionOfSignificantTValuesUsingCorrectAnalysis
  • proportionOfSignificantTValuesUsingIncorrectAnalysis
• new data set:
  • KitchenhamMadeyski.SimulatedCrossoverDataSets backed by functions (varianceSimulation, getSimulatedCrossoverDataSets) to reproduce the data set.
