Research and application of static metrics for code quality
Yang Mingquan · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2011
Code quality metrics is an important branch of software analysis.Under the trend of networkization and servicization of software,static analysis method grasps more attention due to its advantage of low-cost,easy-to-implement,and independence from specific program running environment.This paper deals with the quality metrics of Java code.Based on the integration of the open source static analysis tools by Apache Ant,a comprehensive evaluation method of Java code quality is proposed.The approach,supporting comprehensive testing of size,regularity,maintainability,expandability,and potentially dangerous of code,provides an applicable evaluation method for project developers,managers and users.
