Analyst4j V1.5.0
Measure changes in design, effort and maintainability of evolving Java systems with Analyst4j V1.5.0. Evaluate regression and understand changes in the source code using automated software metrics, visualization, and reporting features. Analyst4j helps to keep code entropy under control, be it in house development or outsourced maintenance projects. Analyst4j V 1.5.0 offers automated software metrics, visualization and reporting features to measure changes in Java source code. Systems undergo continuous changes, by analyzing their source code before and after a proposed change it is possible quickly understand the changes in design, effort and maintainability.

With the new version of Analyst4j it is possible to analyze code quality and visually compare the results with one or more versions. A detailed case study of using software metrics to measure changes can be found at URL.

V 1.0.0
Analyst4j provides Java code search using Software Metrics.
Analyst4j offers an environment to analyze and visualize code quality with help of automated software metrics and graphs/charts. It comes as an Eclipse Plugin as well as Standalone.

Prioritize your maintenance effort on Java projects, using Analyst4j's wide range of automated software metrics for Java such as Object Oriented Metrics, Cyclomatic Complexity(McCabe), Halstead Effort/Volume Metrics, SEI Maintainability Index Metric and other Code Metrics.
Unique Features
  1. Search Java code using Software Metrics
  2. Visualize metrics distribution / pattern using Graphs
  3. Generate editable reports(pdf/doc)
  4. Find Java antipatterns to align your maintenance efforts
  5. Perform Pareto analysis to understand whats more important.
  6. Categorize code using metrics
Analyst4j can be very useful to plan and prioritize your work when in used in combination with other bug finding tools/plugins.
For e.g. Analyst4j can find the most Complex Classes using Weighted Methods Complexity(WMC) or Complex Methods using Cyclomatic Complex/Essential Complexity.
Now running a bug finding tool on these resources and fixing them would ensure that the core part of your application is clean, other resource can be fixed eventually based on priority.

Pareto effect – ‘the vital few and the trivial many’ Find the vital few using Software Metrics & Analyst4j.
