Sonar Code Quality Testing Essentials

Sonar Code Complexity metrics

Sonar hosts a wide selection of complexity-related rules to help us monitor our software projects. Next, we are going to add 17 rules of major severity to the custom packt profile.

Complexity rules profile distribution
Severity	Rules count	Value
Major	17	17 x 3 = 51
Total value		51

Log in to Sonar as administrator and add the following rules to the custom packt profile:

Major	Class Data Abstraction coupling	Checkstyle
Major	Class Fan Out Complexity	Checkstyle
Major	Cyclomatic Complexity	Checkstyle
Major	JavaNCSS	Checkstyle
Major	Nested For Depth	Checkstyle
Major	Nested If Depth	Checkstyle
