NDepend Description
NDepend is a powerful and reliable tool designed to work with Microsoft .NET environments and review scripts.
Its functionality includes source code analysis, comparison and quality optimization. The utility can easily be integrated with Visual Studio, however, it includes a standalone Command Line tool for creating and analyzing projects.
NDepend allows you also to create rules templates and query codes for your developing applications.
It can easily find duplicate codes and potentially dead pieces of text within scripts. You may manage Code Base Evolution and Review Methods, as well as identify all .NET Framework Assemblies stored on your computer.
NDepend allows you to load various forms of .NET code for analysis, including Assemblies from Visual Studio solutions or custom ones saved in local folders. Moreover, you can add third party assemblies.
You may view the progression indicators, errors, warnings and other notifications in the console, as well as observe the properties of each assembly by hovering the cursor on top of it. Not only can you load assemblies, but you may also import analysis results, queries and trends, for comparison.
You can load two builds or versions of the same project and observe the changes by simply comparing their source code. The utility can automate this feature, allowing you to view the evolution of code metrics.
The tool allows you to identify and manage dependencies in your projects, as well as to assess the impact of class changes on remote segments of code.
NDepend can create detailed reports of the code analysis and comparison, which can indicate the status of the development. You may also view errors and other warnings in real time.
The component can also create trend charts based on real trend metrics values that you logged over time with monitoring programs. NDepend includes various trend analysis templates, but you can easily customize your own.
