Gerrit Code Review vs Infer: What are the differences?
Developers describe Gerrit Code Review as "OpenSource Git Code Review Tool". Gerrit is a self-hosted pre-commit code review tool. It serves as a Git hosting server with option to comment incoming changes. It is highly configurable and extensible with default guarding policies, webhooks, project access control and more. On the other hand, Infer is detailed as "A tool to detect bugs in Android and iOS apps before they ship, by Facebook". Facebook Infer is a static analysis tool - if you give Infer some Objective-C, Java, or C code, it produces a list of potential bugs. Anyone can use Infer to intercept critical bugs before they have shipped to people's phones, and help prevent crashes or poor performance.
Gerrit Code Review and Infer can be primarily classified as "Code Review" tools.
Infer is an open source tool with 9.94K GitHub stars and 1.35K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Infer's open source repository on GitHub.
