Software helps developers improve Java code quality.
Press Release Summary:
With support for common Java frameworks, CodePro AnalytiX(TM) v5.0 helps create reliable desktop, server, and web applications and detect potential security holes in Java code. Date-delimited Audit Filtering(TM) allows users to set scope of code examined based on creation date and speeds integration of new code with older Java code, while Time-delimited Audit Filtering(TM) allows them to determine what code is audited based on floating time-increment for control over portions of code that are examined.
Original Press Release:
Instantiations Ships Version 5 of Popular CodePro AnalytiX
New features broaden support of key Java frameworks, expand security auditing, reduce code maintenance, improve code quality and make developers productive
PORTLAND, Ore., April 2 / -- Instantiations, Inc., a leading provider of software quality and productivity solutions today announced version 5.0 of its popular CodePro AnalytiX(TM) tool for improving Java code quality. The latest version of the product includes increased support for popular Java frameworks, new auditing capabilities, duplicate code analysis, and expanded test generation and editing. The new features help developers improve Java code quality, reduce code maintenance, decrease potential code security vulnerabilities and make it easier to integrate older Java code into evolving systems.
"With each update, we deepen the CodePro features by making it easier for developers to be increasingly productive at detecting, reporting and repairing code defects so they can create the highest quality Java code," said Eric Clayberg, Instantiations senior vice-president of product development, "As Eclipse-based development become more broadly used in the enterprise, there's an increasing need for CodePro's high-value, high-ROI development environment that gives programmers the ability to find and fix bugs earlier in the development cycle."
CodePro AnalytiX was recently named a finalist in the 17th Annual Jolt Product Excellence Awards, the high-profile award competition sponsored by CMP Technology's Dr. Dobb's.
Gives Developers the Control to Create Higher Quality Code
The expanded feature set in CodePro AnalytiX 5.0 makes developers active participants in increasing code quality and increases productivity by extensively automating the process. During design, it improves their control over code quality, security and reliability, while also reducing code maintenance. Seven of the product's new features are:
o Auditing Popular Java Frameworks - With newly added code auditing rules
for widely used Java frameworks including Java Server Faces (JSF),
Hibernate and Struts, developers can create higher quality and more
reliable desktop, server and Web applications faster.
o Enhanced Security Auditing - Version 5.0 provides developers with many
new audit rules that detect potential security holes in their Java code.
Now they can detect security vulnerabilities and remove them before the
vulnerabilities are exploited to damage company systems and reputations.
o Date-delimited Audit Filtering(TM) - A unique code auditing capability
that allows developers to set the scope of the code examined based on a
code creation date. This feature speeds the integration of new code
with older Java code significantly.
o Time-delimited Audit Filtering(TM) - An advanced capability that allows
developers to determine what code is audited based on a floating time-
increment. This feature provides developers greater control over the
portions of code that are examined and enhances audit efficiency.
o Duplicate Code Analysis - Developers can scan their code for identical
("copy & paste") or nearly identical lines of code within a project or
across multiple projects. When they find matching code, they can
refactor it to reduce code size, eliminate subtle bugs, increase code
reliability and reduce application maintenance.
o Expanded JUnit Test Editing - Developers now have more choices to
control test case execution in the JUnit Test Editor. They can start
and stop execution, or click the new "refresh test" button to quickly
rerun tests. An improved user interface allows them to edit tests more
quickly using fewer mouse clicks.
o Advanced JUnit Test Generation - Version 5.0 improves the quality of
generated test code by reducing the number of redundant tests. This
improves the generated JUnit test quality, improves code coverage,
reduces code maintenance and increases code reliability.
