CodeScan by AutoRABIT offers static code analysis solutions built specifically for the Salesforce platform to provide total visibility into code health.
CodeScan searches user environments for existing bugs and mistakes that can create data security vulnerabilities or errors in live functionality. This powerful tool makes use of over 600 built-in rules to scan existing lines of code in applications and updates. Errors are flagged in real-time as code is being written so developers can address these issues at the source, shoring up potential vulnerabilities. This results in stronger, more reliable applications and updates which makes a better experience for the end user.
CodeScan’s automated code reviews enable Salesforce development teams to drastically increase productivity levels and heighten delivery velocity. What was formerly performed manually can now be accomplished through the help of automation for a fraction of the time. Not only does this speed up the code review process, but it also frees team members’ time to focus on furthering the application or update through the DevOps pipeline. CodeScan integrates directly with the CI/CD pipeline to provide seamless reviews.
Better code translates to stronger, more reliable updates and applications. CodeScan provides integrations with popular integrated development environment (IDE) plugins to enable developers to find and fix errors as they are written. This saves developer time and reduces the overall cost of the project—errors found in the production stage of the pipeline are 150x more expensive to fix when compared to those found in the design stage.
Additionally, poor code visibility leads to unfound errors working their way into live updates and applications, which can create data security vulnerabilities and improper functionality. CodeScan provides total visibility into code health at every stage of the DevOps pipeline to ensure nothing slips between the cracks. This is made possible through immediate alerts when an error is written into the code as well as high level reports and dashboards that provide in-depth analysis of code health.
- If you are providing written answers for your submission, you must provide an answer to this third question: Outline the market performance, critical reception, and customer satisfaction with the product or service to date. State monetary or unit sales figures to date, if possible, and how they compare to expectations or past performance. Provide links to laudatory product or service reviews.
