Built-in Test ConfigurationDescription
Recommended RulesThe default configuration of recommended rules. Covers most Severity 1 and Severity 2 rules. Includes rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration. 
Find Duplicated CodeApplies static code analysis rules that report duplicate code. Duplicate code may indicate poor application design and lead to maintainability issues.
MetricsComputes values for  several code metrics. 
Flow AnalysisDetects complex runtime errors without requiring test cases or application execution. Defects detected include using uninitialized or invalid memory, null pointer dereferencing, array and buffer overflows, division by zero, memory and resource leaks, and dead code. This requires a special Flow Analysis license option.
Flow Analysis AggressiveIncludes rules for deep flow analysis of code. A significant amount of time may be required to run this configuration.
Flow Analysis FastIncludes rules for shallow depth of flow analysis, which limits the number of potentially acceptable defects from being reported.
Critical RulesIncludes most Severity 1 rules, as well as rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration.  
DemoIncludes rules for demonstrating various techniques of code analysis. May not be suitable for large code bases.
Find Memory IssuesIncludes rules for finding memory management issues in the code. 
Find Unimplemented ScenariosIncludes rules for finding unimplemented scenarios in the code. 
Find Unused Code Includes rules for identifying unused/dead code.
Check Code Compatibility against .NET [2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 Client Profile, 4.0 Full, 4.5.0, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6.0, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7.0]Includes a set of test configurations that validates the code’s compatibility with the specified version of .NET framework. 

CWE-SANS Top 25 Most Dangerous Programming
Errors

Includes rules that find issues classified as Top 25 Most Dangerous Programming Errors of the CWE-SANS standard. 
NIST SAMATEIncludes rules that find issues identified in the NIST SAMATE standard
OWASP Top 10 Security VulnerabilitiesIncludes rules that find issues identified in OWASP’s Top 10 standard
PCI Data Security StandardIncludes rules that find issues identified in PCI Data Security Standard 
Security AssessmentGeneral test configuration that finds security issues
IEC 62304 (Template) A template test configuration for applying the IEC 62304 Medical standard.
