In software engineering the key problem is changing the code and coping with the complexity from the huge amount of data as systems evolve and their structure decays, maintainers need accurate and automatic identification of the design problems. Consequently, they miss essential information as design problems evolve over time. To address these type of issues visualization techniques are being used to visualize source code co-change pattern. In this paper we proposed an approach to visualize source code co-change pattern along with source code metrics to identify the complex change pattern. Moreover, we propose a visualization technique that can be used to visualize co-change bug induce pattern.
