Coverity has done a study on some of the most popular open source softwares to determine the software quality and security. The surprising result is that no open-source project that was analyzed had fewer software defects (per KLOC) than some of the major closed-source application. All this means, when it comes to testing the open source code, we still have a some way to go.
Results are published here.
