Code Quality Analysis
Christof Ebert, Valentina Roldan · IEEE Software · 2023
Increasingly complex software systems grow technical debt and life-cycle cost, while decreasing productivity and eroding quality. For instance, cybersecurity risks correlate with complexity due to losing control of changes. Software quality analysis (SQA) checks different dimensions of quality and helps to improve. Overwhelmed by huge reports and tons of false positives, these static analysis tools need experienced tailoring and mentoring. We will show here how to set up an automatic SQA that is more than just a report generator. Practitioner guidance and case studies are shared from our industry projects. I look forward to hearing from you about this column and the technologies that matter most for your work.
