Release Notes 6.8.0

CodeScene version 6.8.0 includes the following:

Feature: Code Health: make the code duplication criteria configurable as part of Custom Code Health.

We’re unifying the way code duplication is reported. We made the thresholds configurable and also unified them across programming languages. So you might notice small discrepancies from previous code health scores. In previous versions, the Code Duplication had less impact on larger files, a behavior that we have now changed to be independent of file size.

Use the following custom thresholds to tailor how Code Duplication is reported:

- function_duplication_min_lines_of_code_for_check specifies the lower threshold for when to report duplicated code with respect to function length. Default value: 10 (LoC). The idea is that you don’t care about 1 or 2 line functions that happen to be similar – that would generate tons of false positives.
- function_duplication_min_similarity_percentage specifies the thresholds for when two – or more – functions are considered copies of each other. Default: 75 (%). Code is considered duplicated when its structural similarity exceeds this threshold.
Feature: Added ability to filter the system map on tickets to visualize which areas of the code base were modified

The System Maps now include a filtering feature that enables visualization of modified areas in the codebase based on ticket data. Filtering can be done by selecting multiple tickets simultaneously.

This filtering feature empowers you to quickly focus on specific areas of the codebase tied to relevant issues, enabling targeted visualization and better analysis. It’s a simple and powerful tool to focus on specific issues and see how they impact the system.

To enable filtering at system maps, PM integration has to be enabled.

CodeScene version 6.7.0 includes the following:

Feature: Code Coverage tab at Software Portfolio

The Software Portfolio now gives a high-level overview of all your projects in terms of CodeScene's four factors and Code Coverage. It is designed to make it easy to see trends impacting your entire organization and to make high-level prioritization.

User-uploaded Image

More information on how the average coverage calculation is done can be found here.

Added exclusion filters on a project level for Code coverage

Projects will often have only partial code coverage data. This could be for several reasons:

- Multiple programming languages in a project: they do not have coverage data yet for one or more of the languages they use
- Multiple repositories: they are currently generating CC data on some repos, but not all

There might also be parts of a codebase that cannot or will not be tested.

All of these situations would lead to many files being marked as having 0% code coverage, in other words as false positives. This would result in an incorrect representation of the code coverage situation, both in terms of which files appear as red 0% files and for the averages that we calculate.

We now have a way for the user to tell CodeScene when the absence of CC data does not mean the absence of code coverage.

CodeScene version 6.1.0 includes the following:

CodeScene 6.1 comes with several improvements to the Code Health metric:

Expand the code review with the detection of Complex Conditionals: complex conditional expressions make code hard to read, and contribute to the Complex Method code smell. It's a common issue, so we decided to add direct support for it. Complex Conditionals will be reported in the Virtual Code Review, the X-Ray, as well as our PR and IDE integrations.
By default, any conditional expression with two or more logical operators (&&, ||) is flagged. You can change that default using the custom code health mechanism.

Open range code health score to capture trends in complex hotspots: In previous versions, really complex code could hit the `1.0` code health floor. That meant there weren't any further trend warnings in case the code got worse. Starting with this release, we introduce a new code health algorithm with an open bottom range. That way, you can discover trends — both negative and positive — no matter how low the code health score is.

New Code Health trend on the dashboard: For this release, we're changing what's shown in the code health trend graph to be the Average Code Health straight off. More intuitive. The scale of the y-axis adapts to the actual changes during the selected time span, making it easy to spot even small changes in the average code health trend regardless of the size of your code base.

The 6.1 release also contains all the features we released iteratively. Some key highlights:

Software Portfolio Overview: The Software Portfolio gives a high-level overview of all your projects in terms of CodeScene’s four factors. It is designed to make it easy to see trends impacting your entire organization and to make high-level prioritization.

New presentation page for PR reviews: the result page for a specific PR has been re-designed to provide a clearer presentation of the issues, including documentation and motivation for each rule.
