SONAR is a code quality management platform, dedicated to continuously analyze and measure technical quality, from the projects portfolio to the class method.
Dependency Finder is a suite of tools for analyzing compiled Java code. At the core is a powerful dependency analysis application that extracts dependency graphs and mines them for useful information. This application comes in many forms for your ease of
JayWalker is an open-source build and deployment analysis tool which interrogates a Java application's compiled artifacts and generates static and interactive graphical reports from it. In turn, a software professional can interpret and use these reports to improve software quality and to understand the current state of the software application in question.
Although there are quite a few dependency analysis tools on the market, JayWalker is different because:
* It walks the class files rather than the source files
* It can interrogate nested archives (i.e. a JAR within a WAR within an EAR file)
* It can detect a variety of conflicts that can be identified at build and deployment time in an effort to minimize runtime dependency errors.
* It can be incorporated into a continuous integration solution so conflicts can be identified as they are introduced into source code control rather than addressing errors at runtime.
* It can be run standalone via the commandline on a system which just has a JRE installed
* Other dependency tools are package or class specific. JayWalker has support for archives, packages, and classes.
* Report attributes can be toggled on or off
* Walking across classlist elements can be done in several different ways:
o Deep (default) - recursively follow all paths
o Shallow - recursively follow paths up to and including a boundary element
o System - recursively follow paths up to a boundary element which is not part of the deployment, but is provided by a server or environment.
Calculates various metrics for projects, packages and compilation units. Includes both simple counts like lines of code as well as more complex metrics such as the McCabe cyclomatic complexity.
Jumble is a class level mutation testing tool that works in conjunction with JUnit. The purpose of mutation testing is to provide a measure of the effectiveness of test cases. A single mutation is performed on the code to be tested, the corresponding test cases are then executed. If the modified code fails the tests, then this increases confidence in the tests. Conversely, if the modified code passes the tests this indicates a testing deficiency.
The key to agility is being able to modify code easily and safely. The problem is that many Java applications are too brittle to extend and enhance easily. Attempts to fix or extend - no matter how carefully done - can introduce more bugs and more complexity.
With a full suite of characterization tests generated by JUnit Factory you can bring your legacy code under control. Download our free plug-in for Eclipse to get started.
rototype of a social dynamic analysis tool for Wikipedia called WikiDashboard.The idea is that if we provide social transparency and enable attribution of work to individual workers in Wikipedia, then this will eventually result in increased credibility
The six ‘core’ metrics that will weigh most heavily on institutions’ TEF results are:
Teaching on my course (NSS)
Assessment and feedback (NSS)
Academic support (NSS)
Non-continuation (HESA and ILR data)
Employment or further study (DLHE)
Highly skilled-employment or further study (DLHE)
ztest
ztest is a small classlibrary based on java 1.5 intended to be used in junit tests.
The main purpose of ztest is to put constraints on the code structure of java programs.
It can and should be used to specify an architecure by putting constraints on class dependencies. The architecture can be reused by reusing the test.
ztest scans the bytecode of class files in directories, jars, wars, ears and computes a dependency graph. You can query this dependency graph and define the architecure by specifying valid dependencies and rejecting invalid ones.
ztest comes with a dependency-test (ZDependencyTest) with which you can define sets of classes and the allowed dependencies between them.
The class sets are defined by filtering the nodes of the dependeny graph.
Another tool from the great Thoughtworks people. It "provides a set of Ant build files to simplify configuring many of the most popular tools. Setting up a project can be as simple as:
1. Download and extract Panopticode in your project's home directory
2. Copy the PROJECT_HOME/panopticode/build-example.xml file to PROJECT_HOME/build.xml
3. edit the PROJECT_HOME/build.xml to specify your classpath and source code directory.
4. (optional) Select your source code management tool in the PROJECT_HOME/panopticode/panopticode-imports.xml
The whole thing can be easily done in 5 minutes. If you have a fast internet connection you could probably pull it off in 2 minutes :)"
a tool for measuring code metrics of Java applications. Contrary to other tools, Meaxure works with Java source files instead of class files and aims to be extendable. Currently Meaxure supports common metrics like lines of code, number of classes, number of methods or cyclomatic complexity. Due to it's reliance on source files it does not support metrics which cannot be calculated from individual source files like depth of inheritance tree or number of children.
Meaxure supports reporting violations to certain metrics. Rules for violations can be specified using XPath expressions,
A new metrics in the works...instead of "impact factor", try "usage factor?" A majority of publishers in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) appear to support "UF."
