FindBugs is a defect detection tool for Java that uses static analysis to look for more than 200 bug patterns, such as null pointer dereferences, infinite recursive loops, bad uses of the Java ... [More] libraries and deadlocks. FindBugs can identify hundreds of serious defects in large applications (typically about 1 defect per 1000-2000 lines of non-commenting source statements). FindBugs is open source, and has been downloaded more than 230,000 times, and is used by many major companies and financial institutions. Findbugs can be used from the command line or within ant, eclipse, maven, netbeans and emacs. [Less]

PMD is a Java source code analyzer. It finds unused variables, empty catch blocks, unnecessary object creation, and more. It includes CPD, a tool to detect chunks of identical code.

CruiseControl is a framework for a continuous build process. It includes, but is not limited to, plugins for email notification, Ant, and various source control tools. A Web interface is provided to ... [More] view the details of the current and previous builds. [Less]

Perl-Critic is a static source analyzer for Perl code. It is an extensible framework for creating and automatically enforcing coding standards across a body of code. Many of the default rules are ...

The Eclipse Checkstyle plug-in integrates the Checkstyle Java code auditor into the Eclipse IDE. The plug-in provides real-time feedback to the user about violations of rules that check for coding style and possible error prone code constructs.

The BuildBot is a system to automate the compile/test cycle required by most software projects to validate code changes. By automatically rebuilding and testing the tree each time something has ... [More] changed, build problems are pinpointed quickly, before other developers are inconvenienced by the failure. The guilty developer can be identified and harassed without human intervention. By running the builds on a variety of platforms, developers who do not have the facilities to test their changes everywhere before checkin will at least know shortly afterwards whether they have broken the build or not. Warning counts, lint checks, image size, compile time, and other build parameters can be tracked over time, are more visible, and are therefore easier to improve. [Less]

Continuum is a continuous integration server for building Java based projects. It supports a wide range of projects.

Gendarme is a extensible rule-based tool to find problems in .NET applications and libraries. Gendarme inspects programs and libraries that contain code in ECMA CIL format (Mono and .NET) and looks ... [More] for common problems with the code, problems that compiler do not typically check or have not historically checked. Gendarme uses the Cecil library to introspect code. [Less]
