Find Bugs in Java Programs

FindBugs looks for bugs in Java programs. It is based on the concept of bug patterns. A bug pattern is a code idiom that is often an error. Bug patterns arise for a variety of reasons: * Difficult language features * Misunderstood API methods * Misunderstood invariants when code is modified during maintenance * Garden variety mistakes: typos, use of the wrong boolean operator FindBugs uses static analysis to inspect Java bytecode for occurrences of bug patterns.
