CodePro Audit Plugin

The CodePro Audit plugin is a Maven 2 plugin that analyzes the resources in a project for conformance to a set of coding standards. It is based on the Code Audit feature found in CodePro AnalytiX™, an automated software quality tool from Instantiations.

The coding standards are represented by an audit rule set. All of the information about which resources to audit, which audit rule set to use, and other parameters controlling the analysis can be configured in the project's pom, as described in the documentation of the individual goals.
