Abstract:
The software inspection process is generally considered a software engineering best practice. For a long time, it had the goals of finding and fixing defects as soon as possible. For this reason, techniques are suggested for use in a software reuse process in order to improve the quality of the assets developed and reused. Thus, the code become itself easier to understand and changeable, and improving its maintainability, minimizing redundancies and improving language proficiency, safety and portability. In this way, looking for analyzing this area, this paper presents a survey of code inspection research.
