Pattern-based analysis detects constructs in the source code that are known to result in software defects based on programming standards, such as CWE and MISRAOWASP. Pattern-based static analysis helps ensure that developers are following coding best practices, unit testing best practices, as well as the organization's development policy.

Code Duplication Analysis
dotTEST can check for duplicate code to help you improve application design and decrease maintenance costs. During code duplication analysis, the code is parsed into smaller language elements (tokens). The tokens are analyzed according to a set of rules that specify what should be considered duplicate code. There are two types of rules for analyzing tokens:

Metrics Analysis
dotTEST can compute several code metrics, such as code complexity, coupling between objects, or lack of cohesion, which can help you understand potential weak points in the code. Run the Metrics test configuration during analysis to execute metrics analysis rules:
...
In general, we recommend running in a large JVM heap configured with the Xmx JVM option. This is to minimize swapping, which results in greater performance. If sufficient memory is available, swapping of analysis data may be disabled, which may speed up code analysis.
...
Enable swapping of analysis data to disk:
Disabled
Disabled by default. If this option is disabled, it may result in faster analysis, if you are running Flow Analysis analysis on small to moderate size projects that do not require a lot of memory or when plenty of memory is available (for example, for 64-bit systems).
