Qodana 2022.2 Is Available: CircleCI Orb and 50+ New Inspections

License auditing now comes in Qodana linters out of the box. PHP, Java, and Kotlin inspections have been added to your pipelines.

Learn how to automate license auditing, make it a part of your CI/CD, and mitigate compliance risks.

What makes CI/CD tools so great for quality control? Let’s find out.

Qodana linters are now integrated into your Azure DevOps repositories to make code analysis a part of your build pipeline.

Why is static code analysis important? How can you benefit from adding another step in the project lifecycle? Find the answers to these questions and others in our blog post.

Even before we started to work on Qodana, we knew from our own experience and user interviews that it's hard to add static analysis to a project, which leads people to delay this decision. If you join a project with established code quality procedures, you can just follow the rules. If you start a shiny new project, you can pick any set of rules you want. This option has its pitfalls, but at least you know that your code meets your own standards from the beginning. In contrast, if you join or work for a project where quality gates are not yet part of the process, being pressured to implemen

Qodana specializes in build quality management, delivering the static analysis smarts of IntelliJ Platform to project-level checks. In May, we extended the platform with a second linter,  Clone Finder, which detects code duplicates. Today, we are happy to announce the EAP for License Audit to detect incompatible third-party licenses on which your code relies, making the compliance verification process easier for your project and company. Qodana License Audit is still very much in the early stages, but making it available earlier helps us to catch problems earlier. This makes prepar

In December 2020, we announced the EAP for Qodana, which is rapidly evolving into a comprehensive platform that allows companies to perform multi-level evaluations of the quality of code they own, contract, or purchase. Qodana helps you detect bugs without relying on an IDE, either on a local machine or a build server, and it is designed to be seamlessly integrated into CI/CD pipelines. In addition to delivering static analysis for automated project-level evaluations, the Qodana team is developing additional audit features. One of them is Clone Finder, which looks for duplicates in software r

JetBrains IDEs are well known for their ability to understand code. They can track declarations, check references and types, and collect possible execution paths. Thanks to all this static analysis, you are able to rename and move things around safely, get appropriate code completion, and get warned with a message saying “hey, this won't run” from the code inspection if you are adding something that won’t work into your code. Having all this while you are working in the editor is extremely helpful, but modern CI-centric workflows require having a reliable quality gate in your build pipeline.
