App Store Analysis研究从应用商店获得的应用程序信息。应用程序商店提供了大量来自用户的信息，如果应用程序是通过以前的软件部署方法分发的，这些信息将不存在。App Store Analysis将这些非技术信息与技术信息相结合，以了解这些形式的软件存储库中的趋势和行为。App Store分析的结果对为应用商店开发软件的软件团队产生了直接和可操作的影响，并导致了需求工程，发布规划，软件设计，安全和测试的技术。该调查描述和比较了迄今为止已经探索的研究领域，绘制了共同的方面，趋势和未来研究应该采取的方向，以解决开放的问题和挑战。
App Store Analysis studies information about applications obtained from app stores. App stores provide a wealth of information derived from users that would not exist had the applications been distributed via previous software deployment methods. App Store Analysis combines this non-technical information with technical information to learn trends and behaviours within these forms of software repositories. Findings from App Store Analysis have a direct and actionable impact on the software teams that develop software for app stores, and have led to techniques for requirements engineering, release planning, software design, security and testing. This survey describes and compares the areas of research that have been explored thus far, drawing out common aspects, trends and directions future research should take to address open problems and challenges.
