Advanced static code analysis tool that assists developers in highlighting defects in real time
There's a feature in Klocwork called 'on-the-fly analysis', which helps developers to find and fix the defects at the time of development itself. This means that you don't have to wait for the development to finish and waste that time. This provides efficiency. Klocwork also has various plugins available for development tools and they work seamlessly. Our clients often opt for Klocwork due to its accuracy of results and the continuous addition of new features.
