Using code analysis tools for architectural conformance checking
Jo Van Eyck, Nelis Boucké, Alexander Helleboogh, Tom Holvoet · 2011
Architectural conformance checking verifies whether a system conforms to its intended architecture, which is essential to safeguard the quality attributes of the system. Due to the size of many systems, performing conformance checking by means of manual code inspections is often practically infeasible. Code analysis tools can be used to automatically check architectural conformance.
