Analyze the impact of a change in your code.
Estimate what you should modify to accomplish a change without breaking your application!
Document the inner workings of your code. Share the knowledge with teammates:
Generate a detailed documentation on a scheduled basis automatically.
Check your code against hundreds of rules to detect flaws or weaknesses that can create security breaches.
Automatically check your code against hundreds of rules, to improve the quality of your code.
Visual Expert offers TWO ways to compare your code:
2 analyses of the same code or 2 separate sets of code
Visual Expert combines PowerBuilder and database statistics generated during the execution of your application, with a deep analysis of your code.
Visual Expert can analyze several programming languages, either separately (Oracle code only for instance) or altogether
(for example: PowerBuilder Front-end + an Oracle back-end + Front-end / Back-end dependencies).
You can analyse multiple applications at the same time.
For example if you maintain a portfolio and need to explore several applications in parallel.
Team members can collaborate, sharing the same code analysis. For instance, an analyst prepares a change and lists the objects impacted. Teammates leverage this Impact Analysis, to review and change the corresponding objects. More about Visual Expert TEAM SYSTEM
When a new code analysis is done, previous ones remain available. Open previous analyses to browse older versions of your code. Compare two code Analyses to find differences between them.
