SAST tools speed comparison: Snyk Code vs SonarQube and LGTM

Snyk Code has been compared to two common SAST tools, LGTM and SonarQube, in terms of speed. The comparison was conducted on 48 JavaScript open source repositories, with the aim of simulating real-world development challenges. Snyk Code proved to be significantly faster than both LGTM and SonarQube, with average scan times being around 22 seconds for Snyk Code, 312 seconds for LGTM, and 110 seconds for SonarQube. The results show that Snyk Code is not only developer-friendly but also provides near real-time feedback, allowing developers to address security issues during the development process without delaying their work. The comparison highlights the importance of speed in SAST solutions, as it enables developers to work efficiently and effectively.
