Code quality is identify based on some parameters such as best practices standards and rule sets. When code quality is increased, then user acceptance testing issues and production issues are reduced and productivity is increased. Using this PMD report, produced by an open source static source code analyzer that reports on issues found in the code, we can allocate extra time for reviewing code, and this increases product quality, along with best practice standards and effective governance.

There are two methods for performing the analysis. We will discuss them in the next sections.
