Automated evaluations are generated by selecting software projects and dividing a project into a plurality of code blocks by analyzing the code, build file and build log. Attributes of code blocks are extracted and correlations between code blocks are calculated.

Code delivery distance indicating the code delivery behavior is generated by the Dynamic User Distance Map while the delivery assessment criteria is generated to evaluate code delivery and assess levels of risk associated with delivery of the code. High-level risk indicates that a code delivery may not follow best practices and users are alerted to pay more attention to the code delivery during review.
