Build maintainable software

Put a bar on code quality and move your software forward

CodeScene lets you set quality gates to ensure that technical debt and dicey code don't creep into your project. Contributors get instant feedback on pull requests and you don’t need to spend time reviewing submissions until CodeScene thinks they're ready. CodeScene identifies whether a PR requires an in-depth review or just a "sanity check".

"I use the community version of the CodeScene product to analyze the technical debt of the project and focus refactoring efforts where it is really needed. CodeScene gives a very precise vision of hotspots by correlating metrics obtained on the code and the activity of the teams on the project. The product is capable of underlining the sections of code presenting a risk. It also offers many other interesting features and metrics to effectively manage technical debt in projects."
