we are ourselves still at the brainstorming stage. But here are a few
questions you might want to ponder:
- Can we find out how often/long a programmer reads the JavaDoc tooltips
that pop up for a method in code completion?
- If Code Recommenders intelligent ranking moves a method from position
42 to position 1 *and* the programmer selects it, how much time does
this safe the programmer? (It's not just hitting "Arrow Down" 41
times...we also safe time skimming JavaDocs, for example)
- Can we measure how much time is spend navigating through menus rather
than using a keyboard shortcut?
Best wishes,
Andreas
