Stefan Seidel commented on MOJO-678:
------------------------------------

Maybe that sounded more sophisticated than it had to...

Yes, basically violations average per class is probably the most useful. But 
also per lines of code. That tells you something like:
for every 4 lines of code you write, you have a checkstyle/PMD/findbugs 
violation.

We work here with >50 submodules and they are very different in size, ranking 
from 50 lines per module up to 15000. Absolute numbers don't express how well 
(or how bad) the module developer has done his/her work.

With the charts - I was just thinking of what possibilities there are to show 
these relative numbers, I for myself do not know which one of them is the most 
useful.

> For the Checkstyle, PMD, CPD (and poss. Findbugs) it would be nice to have 
> the values not only in absolute terms (e.g. 2342 Checkstyle violations), but 
> also in relative terms (per class/per file/per line-of-code). That would 
> allow a much better overview of the general state of the module (esp. for 
> checkstyle).
> Now for the tables it should not be too much of a problem to add these 
> numbers (but it should probably be configurable, too), but for the 
> graphs/charts there are some options:
>  - select one of the values <absolute, per_class/per_file, per_LOC> and 
> render only this value in the chart
>  - select some of the values <absolute, per_class/per_file, per_LOC> and 
> render one chart per selected value
>  - select some of the values <absolute, per_class/per_file, per_LOC> and 
> render them all in one chart, scaled approbiately
> Any opinions on this?
