Patent number: 9916224Abstract: Techniques are provided for integrating source code analysis tools with a code review tool. A user submits a code change to the code review tool and one or more code analysis tools are automatically initiated to analyze the changed code. Results of the code analysis tool(s) are automatically provided back to the code review tool. Additionally or alternatively, one or more tests are automatically run to test one or more executables that are based on the changed code. Results of the test(s) are automatically provided to the code review tool. In this way, an effect of a code change is automatically determined and available for review along with the code change. The results of any code analysis tools and/or tests may be posted synchronously or asynchronously with the corresponding code change.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2015Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: LinkedIn CorporationInventors: Andrew Macleod, Jasper Lee, Scott Holmes, Arvind Mani, Nikhil Marathe, Yuji Kosuga, Roman Shafigullin
