-----------------------------------
Summary: Recommend to use FindBugs
Key: SPARK-1590
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1590
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Question
Components: Build
Reporter: Shixiong Zhu
Priority: Minor
FindBugs is an open source program created by Bill Pugh and David Hovemeyer
which looks for bugs in Java code. It uses static analysis to identify hundreds
of different potential types of errors in Java programs.
Although Spark is a Scala project, FindBugs is still helpful. For example, I
used it to find SPARK-1583 and SPARK-1589. However, the disadvantage is that
the report generated by FindBugs usually contains many false alarms for a Scala
project.
