Why does code quality analysis matter?

Writing and delivering cleaner code, using static code analysis, increases the impact of your DevOps with better quality and security. Flag severe issues, debug as a team and learn as you go with code quality analysis for:

  • Maintainability: Make sure your code works as well in the future as it does now. High-quality codebases are easier to adapt, add features to, and scale over time if they utilize things like consistent naming conventions and follow procedure on tactics such as auto indents.
  • Reducing bugs and defects: Spotting bugs and defects, such as infinite loops where there are missing exit conditions, or injection vulnerabilities, in your code earlier in the development process means you can fix issues before they have a negative impact.
  • Improving security: Lowering the risk of breaches and vulnerabilities (with checks for vulnerable dependencies and taint analysis) in your code can protect the performance and reputation of your business.
  • Lowering technical debt: Creating high-quality code now means avoiding future costs related to fixing, maintaining, and upgrading it.
  • Encouraging teamwork: Define standards, promote consistency, and make it easier for developers to work together, from peer reviews to collaborative coding projects.

Set the standards with quality gates

Make sure your code meets your team’s standards. Set quality gates to cause a CI/CD workflow or pipeline to fail if they detect more than the defined acceptable number (or severity) of problems in your code.

Report more effectively with the Insights Dashboard

Enjoy a bigger picture view of projects with Qodana’s Insights Dashboard, letting you focus on issues across your projects and track trends. Filter by teams, projects, or inspections for an insightful and up-to-date view that keeps your finger on the pulse of project progress and performance.

Monitor your technical debt

Keep track of potential bugs, security issues, and other problems that could cause issues with maintaining code in the future. Some users add problems to the baseline to keep track of and reduce technical debt over time, although it’s also there to help table known issues.
