Use Case

Improve Knowledge sharing

Successful software projects depend on how well and effectively knowledge is distributed within the team. CodeScene measures Knowledge Distribution - how much code is written by your current team and where you have personnel risks. 

Knowledge-loss-teams

Avoid Knowledge Loss

How much of the code is written by the current team?

Offboarding Simulation

Code familiarity

Vizualise the breakdown of code written by the current team members versus former contributors that have since left the team. Where do you you need to improve? 

Knowledge-loss-teams

Knowledge Islands

A Knowledge Island is a file where the majority of the code is written by just one person. A high number indicates key personnel risks. Significant knowledge is lost if one or two developers leave.

Pull request check

Off-boarding simulator 

CodeScene lets you simulate developer off-boarding while they are still aboard. This lets you identify off-boarding risks and areas of code in need of a new main developer.

TRUSTED BY

Are there any high risk areas where you might lose mastery? 

Knowledge is a core asset

Retrospective

Analyze critical parts

Use these analyses pro-actively to make sure that there aren’t any knowledge islands in critical parts of the code.

Unplanned Work

Detect and eliminate risks

Visualize abandoned code. Look for components that are entirely in the heads of former contributors. That's where the largest risk is.

Users

Plan learning initiatives

Detect code written by people who have since left the company. Low code familiarity requires additional time for learning.

Testimonials

What are our amazing customers saying?

VidMob


"It allows us to be proactive and visualise the impact of a developer leaving a team. On rapidly growing teams, it is important to see where those knowledge islands and risks are."

Ben Holm

- Senior Director of Engineering, VidMob

Luminare


“In an early start-up stage, you often have situations where everything is in the mind of one key developer. However, you get to a point when that is no longer sustainable and becomes a real risk to the growth and potential of the company. You get to that point you need a reliable tool to guide you.”

Marcus Rydberg

- Co-founder and CTO, Luminare
