Source code quality classification based on software metrics

Abstract

Nowadays the software development speed is raising constantly. Therefore software development companies need a tool for checking source code quality to increase software maintainability and decreasing the number of errors in it. Moreover the systems of automated programming require the similar tool as well. As a result we have started developing a library for LLVM compiler which can evaluate source code quality at compile time and a programmer could receive information about source code quality and values of software metrics which are used for evaluating quality. In automated programming systems our library will be useful as well as a part of feedback step for increasing quality of generated source code.
