Best Practices
- Incremental Analysis: Configure Parasoft to analyze only changed files in feature branches
- Quality Gates: Set appropriate thresholds based on project maturity
- Suppression Management: Regularly review and update suppression rules
- Integration: Integrate with SonarQube, Jenkins, and other CI/CD tools
- Custom Rules: Develop organization-specific rules for domain-specific requirements
- Performance Baseline: Establish performance baselines and monitor for regressions
// Example of custom quality check
public class CustomQualityCheck {
public void enforceCodingStandards() {
// Custom validation logic
// Integrate with Parasoft reporting
}
}
