Software Engineering usually develops and indicates the use of different tools to build a computational solution. In addition, one of the goals of the area is improvement for process. Through the understanding and appropriate modification of existing Software Engineering processes, it may be possible to reduce costs, reduce development times and improve the quality of software products. One way of monitoring and evaluating Software Engineering processes is through quantitative assessments. In quantitative assessments, one of the most common ways of analyzing information is through statistical techniques. Some studies have reported challenges in using analysis techniques in Software Engineer- ing, which encompasses little knowledge on the subject, in addition to difficulties in collecting and analyzing the results obtained. With this, this study seeks to help researchers and pro- fessionals in the Software Engineering area to learn more about the concepts of statistical data analysis and to be able to identify possible types of statistical techniques to carry out the analysis of their quantitative studies through the use flowcharts of statistical tests in the area of Software Engineering. The flowcharts were built and evaluated with researchers in the area, with the aim of approximating and evaluating the main needs.
