The tool SMaRT (Software Maintenance, Report and Tracker) was developed as an Eclipse plug-in aimed to check if modifications on source code made by students improve (or decrease) its quality

Eclipse Integration

SMaRT integration with Eclipse IDE

After intall SMaRT, your Eclipse IDE instance will show a new menu

Simple Understanding

SMaRT has a simple interface

According to our research, SMaRT provides a lot of useful information that helps the developer understand the quality of your code.

Resolved and Unresolved Issues

Learn from your successes and mistakes.

All new issues are presented as well as issues resolved.

Local and Server Issues

Another way to evaluate your code.

By analyzing the issues present on the server and the local repository the user has the possibility to evaluate if he agrees with what the SMaRT tool indicated.

Issues per Rule

The complete skill-map

By analyzing issues according to the breached rule, you can get a clearer view of the most common types of breaches committed by the developer. From this analysis it is possible to draw a profile of your skills.

Visual Analysis

An interactive view

From the use of the javascript library D3.js for data visualization, we were able to provide when developing a tool for visual analysis of the quality of your code. Higher severity issues are mapped to warmer colors and occupy more space on the chart while issues of less severity have been mapped to colder colors and occupy less prominent space. It is possible to interact with the classes and issues encountered.

SMaRT tool needs Eclipse MARS.2+ IDE and SonarQube™ platform 5.6 LTS+

Eclipse IDE

Eclipse is an integrated development environment (IDE) used in computer programming, and is the most widely used Java IDE. It contains a base workspace and an extensible plug-in system for customizing the environment.

SMaRT

SMaRT is aimed at source code quality evaluation, supporting students to improve their source code and, consequently, their programming skills. SMaRT uses Sonar Scanner as well as quality profile to provide a feedback about the student coding.

Donwload How to Install Source Code

Before install SMaRT, you need to ensure that you have successfully downloaded, installed and configured the environment of development.

Pin a fixed-height footer to the bottom of the viewport in desktop browsers with this custom HTML and CSS. A fixed navbar has been added with padding-top: 60px; on the body > .container.

# must be unique in a given SonarQube instance
sonar.projectKey=my:project
# this is the name and version displayed in the SonarQube UI. Was mandatory prior to SonarQube 6.1.
sonar.projectName=My project
sonar.projectVersion=1.0
 
# Path is relative to the sonar-project.properties file. Replace "\" by "/" on Windows.
# This property is optional if sonar.modules is set. 
sonar.sources=src
 
# Encoding of the source code. Default is default system encoding
sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8
