Abstract
Because of the volume of software created in the automotive sector, improving software quality has become a need, particularly in areas where safety is crucial, such as autonomous driving. So, continuous software inspection is critical, timely, and essential for ensuring software quality and avoiding worst-case situations in the automotive sector, particularly with autonomous driving. Nonetheless, our idea is inspired by the large number of failures associated with poor software quality. As a result, the primary goal of this research is to provide a solution for continuous software quality inspection in the context of the company Bosch Car Multimedia. A tool named CIAnalyzer Tool was created for this purpose and an architecture was built and deployed in which CIAnalyzer operates as the middleware between SonarQube and Jenkins, delivering an analysis of the software every time someone adds software to the repository. The software is analyzed and, if found to be suitable, is sent to the repository. After implementing this approach, there was a 77.7% reduction in bugs, a 64.6% reduction in code smells, and a 100% reduction in vulnerabilities.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
