Using Static Analysis as part of Code Review

As static analysis tools have become more sophisticated, their role in the software development process has become a subject of debate. Can the use of a static analysis tool substitute for other, presumably more labor-intensive steps in the normal process of coding, testing, verification, validation, and ultimately possibly certification?

This talk will address the issue of using static analysis as an aid to source code review, which is a labor intensive component of many phases of disciplined software development, from initial coding, through certification. Particular attention will be paid to reviewing code according to specific safety-critical software development standards such as DO-178B, or toward identifying specific security vulnerabilities, such as those identified within the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE). We will identify specific features of a static analysis tool, such as the automatic extraction of pre- and postconditions from the code itself, that can facilitate productive code review, both for the relatively informal reviews that take place during the coding phase, and for the more formal reviews that may take place later in the development cycle.
