VBDepend is a static analyzer which has the ability to find hundreds or even thousands of issues that are affecting the code base in real world. The process of stopping the work in order to attempt to fix all the issues for weeks can be quiet and productive for the user and the developer. The recent code smells have the ability to be fixed before committing any code in order to control or highlight the VisualVBDepend. They have the ability to be fixed even before the process of reaching the source server. Consequently, the code quality remains under the control with no major upfront investment needed.
It has the following features and attributes that are stated as below such as:
Code quality metrics: There are a lot of ways present in order to measure a base of a code. This metrics is capable of giving the user a rough estimation of the effort as well as energy that the user has to put in order to develop the code base. It has the ability to permit the user and developer in order to obtain a very quality level agreement by the process of pinpointing the fat method as well as classes. VBDepend has the ability to count the number of the lines of code that are present and also it is capable of coming with more than 60 other metrics of code. Some of them are basically related to the user code organization and some of them are related to the quality of the code.
Exploring the existing architecture: It is very Vital Information in order to know how the element of a codebase depends on each other. As a user and developer the user has to spend time thinking about how the layers should be interacted, created the interface as well as the events in order to avoid the dependency that are between the concrete classes. As the base of the code grows there are more and more time which can be spent for the process of managing as well as analyzing the dependencies. If it is refactored this piece of code, it is basically the global impact and this layer has the ability to permit the access directly. It usually comes with different facilities that permit the user and developer for the efficient dependency management process. If the user reflectors a class, then he is able to pinpoint precisely which part of the code is capable of relying on the particular component of the tier.
Code Query LINQ: VBDepend has the ability to permit the query as well as the code base over the query of the LINQ and this is all thanks to the CQLinq. It doesn't really scream at all the methods that are even more than 30 lines of code. For the process of writing the CQLinq queries as well as a constraint it is considered to be a very straightforward both because of the C# LINQ syntax and also because it has the ability to provide the CQLinq editor which has the capability to support the process of code completion as well as intellisense, live compiling of the error description, and even the integrated tooltip documentation process for the user and the developer.
Trend monitoring: The VBDepend has the ability to permits the user and developer in order to create a trend chart. Trend chart are basically created if the trend metrics as well as the values that are logged overtime in order to analyze the time. There are more than 50 trained metrics that are available per default and it is very easy for the user to create the trend metrics. The trend chart has the ability to customize as well as create the user trend chart in order to show the default trend metrics as well as the customer metrics of the trend.
Compare builds: In the software development process, the products are basically constantly evolving and hence the developers as well as the architect are bound to pay more attention to the process of modification in the base of the code. The modern source code repositories are capable of handling the incremental development process. They have the ability to enumerated difference between the two versions of the source code file for the user and the developer. With the VBDepend it can distinguish between the comment change as it has a code to change. The user has the ability to see how the metrics of the code is evolving and the user has the ability to see the coupling between the component which is increasing or decreasing.
