Static and Dynamic Code Analysis: Comprehensive Techniques
Static Analysis
Static Analysis is the analysis of computer software that is performed without actually executing programs. It is used for software fault detection, code-style recommendation, and metrics to determine the complexity of software.
Features:
- Covers all the code.
- Does not depend on the compiler.
- Can find errors years after deployment.
- Can identify problems with copy-paste of code.
Metrics:
The analysis can be performed at different levels:
- Functions.
- Files.
- Project level.

Understanding Diversification in Software Projects
This concept states that different software projects need different design strategies, techniques, and tools based on their unique nature, size, and objectives. For instance, a project focusing on a mobile application for end-users will have a vastly different design approach compared to a large-scale enterprise software solution.
Domain of Software Design
It involves the identification, definition, and organization of all requirements, constraints,
