The following tables include the test configurations shipped in the [INSTALL]/configs/builtin directory.
Static Analysis
This group includes universal static analysis test configurations. See Security Compliance Pack for test configurations that enforce security coding standards.
| Built-in Test Configuration | Description |
|---|---|
| Recommended Rules | The default configuration of recommended rules. Covers most Severity 1 and Severity 2 rules. Includes rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration. |
| Recommended .NET Core Rules | Includes rules that identify high-severity defects in .NET Core projects. |
| Find Duplicated Code | Applies static code analysis rules that report duplicate code. Duplicate code may indicate poor application design and lead to maintainability issues. |
| Metrics | Computes values for several code metrics. |
| Flow Analysis | Detects 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 Aggressive | Includes rules for deep flow analysis of code. A significant amount of time may be required to run this configuration. |
| Flow Analysis Fast | Includes rules for shallow depth of flow analysis, which limits the number of potentially acceptable defects from being reported. |
| Critical Rules | Includes most Severity 1 rules, as well as rules in the Flow Analysis Fast configuration. |
| Demo | Includes rules for demonstrating various techniques of code analysis. May not be suitable for large code bases. |
| Find Memory Issues | Includes rules for finding memory management issues in the code. |
| Find Unimplemented Scenarios | Includes 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, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, 4.7.2, 4.8] | Includes a set of test configurations that validates the code’s compatibility with the specified version of .NET framework. |
| IEC 62304 (Template) | A template test configuration for applying the IEC 62304 Medical standard. |
| Microsoft Managed Recommended Rules | Applies the Microsoft Managed Recommended Rules that identify the most critical issues in your managed code. |
| Roslyn .NET Analyzers Default Rules | Applies the .NET compiler platform (Roslyn) analyzer rules from the roslyn-analyzer project that have high severity and are enabled by default. See Overview of source code analysis for more information about Roslyn analyzers. |
