SonarSource delivers what is probably the best static code analysis you can find on the market for COBOL. Based on our own COBOL parsing technology, it uses the most advanced techniques (pattern matching, dataflow analysis) to analyze code and find Code Smells, Bugs, and Security Vulnerabilities. As with everything we develop at SonarSource, it was built on the principles of depth, accuracy, and speed.

SonarSource's COBOL analysis has a great coverage of well-established quality standards. This capability is available in Compuware Topaz and IBM IDz for developers (SonarLint) as well as throughout the development chain for automated code review with self-hosted SonarQube or cloud-based SonarCloud.
