Static analysis setup
We integrate analysis tools into your deployment pipeline and configure the rule set to your codebase and technology stack.

Code Analysis Services
We make technical debt measurable and surface risk before the code ships.

Code analysis is the examination of source code without executing it, assessed for quality, security and maintainability. We integrate static analysis tools into your deployment pipeline, prioritise the output and report how technical debt develops over time.
What this service solves
Static analysis tools are installed in most organisations, but the volume of findings they produce exceeds what teams can process. As the list grows, warnings are ignored and the tool falls out of use in practice.
The problem is not tool sensitivity but the absence of prioritisation. We configure the rule set to your codebase, rank findings by risk level and turn them into a work list your teams can actually clear.
Our scope
Finding prioritisation
We rank the output by risk level and business impact, producing a list of a volume teams can process.
Security-focused analysis
We scan for known security vulnerability patterns at code level and report critical findings through a separate stream.
Dependency scanning
We check known vulnerabilities and version currency in the libraries you use, and set update priority by risk level.
Technical debt tracking
We measure code quality indicators periodically and report to management whether debt is rising or falling.
How do we work?
We plan around your release rhythm, manage the operation and improve it in every cycle.
Planning
We define scope, test levels and success criteria against your release calendar. Environment and test data requirements are resolved before the work begins.
Management
We take on team, tool and environment management. Progress is reported regularly against defined KPIs.
Execution
We run the tests and prioritise the findings. We track closure together with your development teams.
Improvement
At the end of every cycle we review scope, automation rate and escaped defect rate. The priorities for the next cycle are set from that review.

How technology supports the service
We run code analysis with the static analysis tool set already in use in your organisation; we work tool-agnostically. If you want analysis output consolidated with test results in one reporting structure, we use RabbitQA's reporting layer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does code analysis replace security testing?
It does not. Static analysis looks for known vulnerability patterns in code; it does not reveal behavioural weaknesses in a running system. The two methods cover different layers and are used together.
Do we need to change our current tool?
Usually not. In most organisations the problem lies in configuration and output management rather than tool choice. We start by reconfiguring the tool you already have.
The number of findings is very high. Where do we start?
We first separate the findings with security and stability impact. We then bring forward findings in frequently changing and business-critical modules. The remainder go into a periodic reduction plan.
Will analysis slow development down?
Not when quality gates are configured with the right thresholds. We set thresholds against the current state of the codebase and tighten them in stages.
