Assignment # $1,$ Due Wednesday September $25{?}^{th},2024$

Submission Guidelines

Assignment is individual.

The submission should be one single PDF file. No zip files will be accepted.

Choose one static analysis tool relevant to your preferred programming language.

Install and configure the tool with default settings and ensure it runs successfully.

Obtain a small codebase $($for example from ICS $104$ or ICS $108)$

Run the static analysis tool on this codebase and document the types of issues

detected $($e$.$g$.,$ coding standards violations, potential bugs, security vulnerabilities$).$

Compute the "Defect density" metric.

Based on the analysis results, identify and correct at least three issues in the

codebase. Describe the changes you made and explain how they address the detected

issues.

Important note: It is your responsibility to check that the tool is good and can be used to

detect good code issues.

Deliverable:

One single PDF file that contains:

The selected tool

The selected codebase

The found bugs $($provide a screenshot$)$

Defect density metric computation

The three fixes with explanations.
