Getting Started With Static Analysis Without Overwhelming the Team

As a Solution Architect at Parasoft, we get a lot of people looking for help in this area, so know that you’re not alone! And if you want more information, you can download and read this full guide that I helped put together.

I’m assuming that your static analysis tools are installed and any initial configuration has been set up. After that, getting started can be tricky if you haven't taken some time at first to make sure you've identified the right strategies to take for your project. Here, what I mean by “getting started” is understanding better the general approach of integrating static analysis into an existing project and how to increase the return on investment of static analysis over time.
