Autoencoders are neural networks that can learn meaningful representations of the data in an unsupervised way. There exist diverse variants of autoencoders, however, in practice the purpose of all variants is to learn to reconstruct a representative copy of the given input. …
This article is a spin-off piece from the paper “Do We Need Improved Code Quality Metrics?” by myself and Prof. Diomidis Spinellis.
Software metrics have always been on a roller-coaster ride. On one hand, researchers and practitioners have adopted metrics not only to reveal quality characteristics of their programs, but…
Often, Designite’s audience asks — how Designite is different from other tools especially SonarQube and NDepend. My (shallow) answer to this question is that the focus on design and architecture granularity issues is lacking in other tools while for Designite they are first-class citizens.
A Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline, such as GitHub Actions, makes tasks such as compiling and testing software easier and automated. Though you may integrate code quality analysis tools (such as SonarQube, Codacy, and CodeBeat) into your CI pipeline. …
If you are a big fan of build and test badges posted on your GitHub or any other hosting platform then keep reading; I am going to show how you can add code quality badge within your repository.
Software engineers are using badges within their open-source repositories to explicitly show…
Today, abundant source code repositories are available on code repository hosting platforms such as GitHub (128 million repositories in Feb 2020). However, a detailed code quality analysis information is not available for the hosted repositories unless we use an existing code quality analysis tool ourselves to…
IntelliJ IDEA is one of the most commonly used IDEs for Java. The community as well as professional editions are actively used by programmers and researchers worldwide. Apart from a myriad of features for developing, testing, and debugging code, the IDE also provides extensive support for refactoring. …
Recently, I was reading “Coders: The making of a new tribe and the remaking of the world” by Clive Thompson to write its review for Computing Reviews; you may find the review online (pay-walled). In the book, he takes the reader on a fascinating journey of the evolution of computing…
Code smells occur at all granularities. We may categorize smells based on their scope and impact. Specifically, smells arising within a local scope, typically within a method, could be referred to as implementation smells (such as empty catch block or magic number). Smells that involve properties of a class and…
