As Besöksadress: applications grow large, it is hard for programmers to keep track of all places in the Ångströmlaboratoriet Lägerhyddsvägen 1 code where they employ aliasing, possibly resulting in hard-to-predict runtime errors. Hus 4, Plan 0 I present a tool, model and query language to perform dynamic aliasing analysis on Java programs. The tool uses the model to simulate the full execution of a program, Postadress: including how and when objects and references between them are created and Box 536 751 21 Uppsala removed. The query language consists of constructs that can be nested to form logical expressions, operating on the model to check whether a certain object remains in a Telefon: certain condition throughout the execution. The language is designed to monitor 018 – 471 30 03 lifetimes of specific objects and collect information about the execution as a whole. I Telefax: performed an experiment using the tool, examining traces from programs for 018 – 471 30 00 profiling, searching and parsing, showing that applications have different aliasing behaviour.

  • Automatic Detection of Bad Smells in Code: an Experimental Assessment
    Journal of Object Technology Published by AITO — Association Internationale pour les Technologies Objets, c JOT 2011 Online at http://www.jot.fm. Automatic detection of bad smells in code: An experimental assessment Francesca Arcelli Fontanaa Pietro Braionea Marco Zanonia a. DISCo, University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy Abstract Code smells are structural characteristics of software that may indicate a code or design problem that makes software hard to evolve and maintain, and may trigger refactoring of code. Recent research is active in defining automatic detection tools to help humans in finding smells when code size becomes unmanageable for manual review. Since the definitions of code smells are informal and subjective, assessing how effective code smell detection tools are is both important and hard to achieve. This paper reviews the current panorama of the tools for automatic code smell detection. It defines research questions about the consistency of their responses, their ability to expose the regions of code most affected by structural decay, and the relevance of their responses with respect to future software evolution. It gives answers to them by analyzing the output of four representative code smell detectors applied to six different versions of GanttProject, an open source system written in Java. The results of these experiments cast light on what current code smell detection tools are able to do and what the relevant areas for further improvement are. Keywords code smells; code smell detection tools; refactoring; software quality evaluation. 1 Introduction Nowadays there is an increasing number of software analysis tools available for detecting bad programming practices, highlighting anomalies, and in general increasing the awareness of the software engineer about the structural features of the program under development.

The study was performed on 5 open source projects, including Java 8 SDK sources. The study shows that there are Swing JavaDoc documents it and for each affected class many occurrences of copy-pasting documentation fragments in includes a warning (see JPanel documentation in Figure 1). the internal documentation, e.g., copy-pasted method parameter description. Besides these, many of the copy-pasted fragments express some domain or design concern, e.g., that the method is obsolete and deprecated. Therefore the study indicates that the cross-cutting concerns are present in the internal documentation in form of documentation phrases. I. INTRODUCTION RESERVING and comprehending developer’s concerns P (intents) in the source code is still a current challenge in software development [1], [2], [3], [4]. In this paper we analyze the internal documentation (source code comments, JavaDoc, etc.) to recognize repeating documentation fragments that document those concerns (or features [5]).

  • Profile Detection Through Source Code Static Analysis
    Profile Detection Through Source Code Static Analysis Daniel Ferreira Novais1, Maria João Varanda Pereira2, and Pedro Rangel Henriques3 1 Departamento de Informática & Centro Algoritmi, Universidade do Minho, Braga, Portugal [email protected] 2 Departamento de Informática e Comunicações & Centro Algoritmi, Instituto Politécnico de Bragança, Bragança, Portugal [email protected] 3 Departamento de Informática & Centro Algoritmi, Universidade do Minho, Braga, Portugal [email protected] Abstract The present article reflects the progress of an ongoing master’s dissertation on language engin- eering. The main goal of the work here described, is to infer a programmer’s profile through the analysis of his source code. After such analysis the programmer shall be placed on a scale that characterizes him on his language abilities. There are several potential applications for such pro- filing, namely, the evaluation of a programmer’s skills and proficiency on a given language or the continuous evaluation of a student’s progress on a programming course. Throughout the course of this project and as a proof of concept, a tool that allows the automatic profiling of a Java programmer is under development. This tool is also introduced in the paper and its preliminary outcomes are discussed. 1998 ACM Subject Classification D.2.8 Metrics, D.3.4 Processors Keywords and phrases Static analysis, metrics, programmer profiling Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/OASIcs.SLATE.2016.9 1 Introduction Proficiency on a programming language can be compared to proficiency on a natural lan- guage [7].

  • Tailoring PMD to Secure Coding
    Tailoring PMD to Secure Coding Markus Aderhold Artjom Kochtchi Technische Universit¨at Darmstadt, Germany Modeling and Analysis of Information Systems Technical Report TUD-CS-2013-0245 September 2013 Abstract In this report, we investigate how PMD can be tailored to check Java code with respect to secure coding guidelines. We chose PMD among four publicly available tools for the static analysis of Java code: FindBugs, Hammurapi, Jlint, and PMD. First, we describe our selection process, which includes an overview of these four tools with a focus on their archi- tecture, their functionality, and their intended application areas. Second, we present an implementation of a so-called rule for PMD so that Java programs can be checked with respect to two secure coding guidelines from the CERT Oracle Secure Coding Standard for Java.

Demonstration . Questions? 2 Who Am I? . Development . CA ~2002 . Perl, Java, PHP . Information Security . UBS ~2005 . Security Consulting . Cigital ~2008 . Architecture . CA ~2008 3 What is Yasca? . Yasca started as a set of perl scripts that grepped through source code looking for XSS vulnerabilities. <%=request.getParameter("foo")%> . <?=$_REQUEST["foo"]?> . Then I needed to do multi-line searches: . String s = request.getParameter("foo"); out.println(s); . As I wrote more rules, I found other scanners that already had many of them. So I made calls out to them. Then everything got nasty and I wrote it all from scratch again in PHP. 4 What is Yasca? . Yasca is an open-source tool that can help you analyze program source code. It leverages several static analysis tools. PMD (http://pmd.sourceforge.net/) . J-Lint (http://artho.com/jlint/) . Pixy (http://pixybox.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/pixy/) . FindBugs (http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/) . It can be used to scan virtually any file type, not only traditional source code. Yasca is written in command-line PHP and released under the BSD license. 5 How Does it Work? . Architecture based on plug-ins. "Major Plug-in" => calls another tool to do the scan . e.g. PMD, J-Lint, FindBugs, Pixy, Grep . "Minor Plug-in" => uses embedded logic . Relatively easy to write, extremely flexible Report Plug-in Yasca Plug-in Generator Plug-in Output /tmp/my_source_code 6 How Does it Work .

Introduction This document describes the software development environment to be used for Java / Java EE applications and services. It follows the Information and Technology Services strategic technology recommendations for Java applications. 2. Technical Overview The application architecture will be Java servlet deployed to Apache Tomcat. The client is typically a Web browser. The primary browser targets are IE 11 and Chrome, though the application should run in all the popular browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari). The User Interface (UI) technology should consist of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript only. The UI should be responsive, ensuring it programmatically adapts to mobile devices (small, touch-enabled screens). The database is typically Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server. Reports should be developed for Business Objects (Crystal) Enterprise. Reports should be decoupled from the application and follow a service-oriented architecture.
