Klocwork Introduces First On-The-Fly Source Code Analysis

By SD Times Newswire

January 17, 2012 — (Page 1 of 2)
Klocwork Inc, the global leader in automated source code analysis (SCA) solutions for developing more secure and reliable software, today launched Klocwork Insight 9.5. This latest release of the company's flagship product changes the entire usage model for source code analysis and removes the remaining barriers to developer adoption of this technology. For the first time, C/C++ developers can access sophisticated source code analysis using the simple usability model of a spell checker.

"What we've seen and heard from our customers is a continued desire to get away from inefficient 'batch processing' deployments where all their code analysis is centralized. It's an inefficient and costly approach to deploying this technology," said Mike Laginski, Chief Executive Officer, Klocwork. "Source code analysis is a developer tool not an audit tool, and Klocwork Insight's brand new usability model allows customers to make early security vulnerability and defect detection a reality."

With this release, Klocwork Insight introduces an on-the-fly user model, where a developer's interaction with the tool has been dramatically simplified in three key areas:

On-the-fly analysis
Similar to the spell check feature in popular word processors, Klocwork Insight instantly underlines defects as developers are writing their code. In the background, sophisticated syntax and dataflow analysis, build comprehension, and incremental analysis are continuously running to ensure thorough and highly accurate identification of security vulnerabilities and critical defects. With an analysis time now measured in milliseconds, Klocwork's static analysis engine is the only SCA product that works the way a developer works.

On-the-fly reporting
With an all new HTML 5 implementation, Klocwork Insight's web reporting tool allows development teams to answer complex questions about the security, reliability and maintainability of their code base quickly and easily. A redesigned report creator and all new report templates use simple drag & drop pivot chart capabilities to allow users to design reports that meet their organization's specific needs.

On-the-fly impact analysis
Klocwork Insight 9.5 offers cross-project impact analysis and reporting which immediately indicates whether a reported issue exists in other code bases, branches or builds. With this smart matching technology, development teams that re-use code across multiple systems won't waste time finding and fixing the same issues over-and-over. This new feature also helps developers prioritize issues based on both severity and prevalence across multiple code streams.
