Effective Code Review with Sonar

SonarSource uses Sonar to monitor its own products' code quality daily, employing a "quality gate" that checks for SQALE index A, no increase in technical debt, and no blocker or critical violations. However, this process can be inefficient as defects introduced during sprints need to be fixed at the end. To address this, SonarSource has implemented continuous inspection, which involves differential views, SCM information, and manual reviews integrated with email notifications. With these tools, developers can identify newly introduced violations, create reviews, assign them, and fix defects before coding again. The process also ensures that fixed reviews are correctly handled by Sonar, and provides a mechanism to notify the person who introduces new violations. By using differential views and manual reviews, SonarSource aims to provide an effective continuous improvement process for managing code quality.
