  Component selection is considered one of hard tasks in Component Based
Software Engineering (CBSE). It is difficult to find the optimal component
selection. CBSE is an approach that is used to develop a software system from
pre-existing software components. Appropriate software component selection
plays an important role in CBSE. Many approaches were suggested to solve
component selection problem. In this paper the component selection is done by
improving the integrated component selection framework by including the
pliability metric. Pliability is a flexible measure that assesses software
quality in terms of its components quality. The validation of this proposed
solution is done through collecting a sample of people who answer an electronic
questionnaire that composed of 20 questions. The questionnaire is distributed
through social sites such as Twitter, Facebook and emails. The result of the
validation showed that using the integrated component selection framework with
pliability metric is suitable for component selection.
