Ask HN: How to Assess the Quality of an App

1 pointm1sta_2 comments

What are some good measures and/or frameworks to assess whether an application is of 'high quality'?

SonarQube is one of the most famous quality checkers.

Another good measure is the number of dependencies used: if too much, the quality might be poor (= poor maintainability).

Is the application vulnerable? Check OWASP for this.

In my experience Sonar optimization only gets you so far and especially does not discourage overly complex solutions.

But you'll at least know that there is some kind of testing, linting etc going on.
