Deep code analysis helps track hard-to-find bugs and quality issues. Advanced, high-precision techniques such as data flow analysis maximize productivity by reducing false positives.

Continuous code inspection


To pay even more attention to the mistakes that are being made while writing the code, it is possible to use Sonarlint, a little gem of SonarSource. Sonarlint is an extension for IDE’s that helps to see the incidents of the code before analyzing it with SonarQube.
