Abstract: A plurality of coding violation indications corresponding to software code are categorized according to a plurality of coding quality attributes. The coding violation indications may be reported via static analysis tools or via manual analysis of the software code. The categorized coding violations serve as the basis for determining a plurality of code quality indices each corresponding to a respective one of the plurality of coding quality attributes. In an embodiment, the plurality of code quality indices may be further processed to determine an overall code quality index for the software code. One or more of the resulting code quality indices may be displayed to a user. In this manner, code quality indices may be provided that are directly based on coding violations reported through static analysis.
