Awesome Empirical Software Engineering
A curated repository of data sets and tools that can be used for conducting evidence-based, data-driven research on software systems. This research approach is often termed experimental, or empirical software engineering. Many of the data sets can also be useful in research using search-based software engineering methods. The repository is named after the Mining Software Repositories (MSR) conference series. For examples of such work see the MSR conference's Hall of Fame.
