In the course of component testing and development, workers typically use static analysis tools. The important thing to remember is that the tool itself runs, not the code (or other artefact), and the source code that interests us is the information that the tool uses as input.
Prior to the beginning of software development, it is completed after business requirement collection and design. The real code or application is not used during the testing process known as static analysis.
The Global Static Testing and Analysis Tools Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Static Analysis Tools (SATs) are used by developers to check for possible quality problems in source code, such as errors and technical debt. It is more difficult for practitioners to choose the best tool for their requirements because tool vendors have developed a large number of tools.
Researchers have been conducting numerous studies on SATs to favour the understanding of their real capabilities in order to better support developers. Static analysis software that evaluates code quality is called Better Code Hub12.
The website’s API is used to conduct the research, which examines the GitHub repository. For customization reasons, the default configuration file can be altered. Structure, organisation, modifiability, and comprehensibility are the main criteria used to evaluate the content of a piece of code.
By comparing the code to ten standards, including “write short units of code,” “write simple units of code,” “write code once,” “keep unit interfaces small,” “separate concern in modules,” “couple architecture components loosely,” “keep architecture components balanced,” “keep your code base small,” and “automate tests,” it is possible to determine whether the code complies with these standards.
Eight of the ten recommendations are categorised as medium, high, or very high intensity, out of a total of ten recommendations. The outcomes are used to evaluate compliance on a scale of 1 to 10.
The results of their RQ show that the majority of the problems identified by static analysis tools are caused by issues that can be solved through developing shorter units of code or automating software tests, for example.
