HCLTech ADvantage Pega Code Scanner

The Code Scanner under The HCLTech ADvantageTM Pega Suite, focuses on performing design, security, and consistent analysis for Pega that will help improve Pega code quality and provide substantial improvements on productivity in the development code review effort. It automatically reviews the Pega code base against the best practices defined (client specific) and displays the rules that violated them with a Code Quality Scorecard. There are about 50+ additional best practices built into the tool itself, based on past experiences and common coding best practices complementing the Pega Guardrails. Code Scanner is built as a highly malleable & independent component, it can easily fit in any functional area or industry domain.
