jAnalysisSuite – A Static Analysis Toolkit

What is it?

The jAnalysisSuite is a set of ant tasks that simplifies the task of integrating multiple static analysis tools into your projects build cycle. Often I find that a single static analysis tool is not enough to because they all look at different aspects of your code. So in every project I find that I have configured (time and time again) a suite of tools and have littered my build path with jars and parameters.

JAnalysisSuite is a toolkit that provides a single jar and a single set of ant tasks that will create findbugs, checkstyle, pmd, jDepend and javaNcss xml reports for one or more modules in your build.  All with minimal configuration.

Tools Integrated:

• Checkstyle – 5.0
• Copy/Paste Detector – 4.2.5
• JDepend – 2.9
• JavaNCSS
• Testability Explorer – 1.3.0 r275
• PMD – 4.2.5
• Findbugs – 1.3.9
• Emma – 2.1
• JUnit – 4.6
