Code Spotter vs SonarQube: What are the differences?
Developers describe Code Spotter as "Cloud-based Static Code Analysis for Java". Boolean satisfiability. Interprocedural data flow. Statistical analysis. We’ve got them all. Plus false path pruning, which understands the data dependencies in your code and eliminates infeasible paths from the analysis so you don’t waste time triaging non issues. On the other hand, SonarQube is detailed as "Continuous Code Quality". SonarQube provides an overview of the overall health of your source code and even more importantly, it highlights issues found on new code. With a Quality Gate set on your project, you will simply fix the Leak and start mechanically improving.
Code Spotter and SonarQube can be primarily classified as "Code Review" tools.
SonarQube is an open source tool with 3.78K GitHub stars and 1.06K GitHub forks. Here's a link to SonarQube's open source repository on GitHub.
