Klocwork Initial Setup

RE
Principal Software Engineer at Valeo

The solution is very easy to install. The basic installation for your project would maybe take one or two days. Then, for each run, it would just take a couple of minutes. Just one person is needed to deploy the solution.

The product is easy to maintain. One person is enough for the setup. Each person developing the code will have the setup integrated and can run the analysis and get a report.

The initial setup for Klocwork is very straightforward, and it's the same as other static analysis tools. As the initial setup is easy, it's a five out of five for me. I didn't observe any glitches when setting up Klocwork.

The setup has always been pretty much the same. Although, I have had one longstanding ticket that I have had open forever, from either Klocwork 8 or Klocwork 9 when I put in the ticket. I have always told them that the setup should not be installed on the applications as a service on the Windows side. Guess what? If you tell it not to install as a service, when you reboot your computer after you do all your installs, it is set up as a service. Then, you have to go and manually remove it.

If I request it not to be installed as a service, don't install it as a service automatically. The latest version of Klocwork is still setting it up this way. It is still installing Klocwork and all of its programs, the database, the license manager, and the analyzer as a service. It starts up every single time that you fire up your computer, even though I have told it not to during setup.

The initial setup is quite straightforward and the configuration from the client-side is also simple. The more difficult part aspect relates to the definition of the rule sets. For instance, if we want to compare a list of rule sets coming from external sources other than Klocwork we don't have native tools. We need to bring the profile list from Microsoft or from another static analysis tool or measuring tool and embed it inside Klocwork. The profiles need to be merged using Excel or something similar.

Klocwork was straightforward to implement and took us a half-day to implement and the upgrade took less time.

Klocwork was easy to install. But, as we are using an on-premises server, our client's configuration needs are different. Since this is on the user's machine the installation part is easy. Yet, the receipt of frequent updates means that time which could be spent on the project side is consumed by that of development.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It is simple to set up and can be done by any developer.

The initial deployment took a couple of days.

We have one person, working half-time to maintain this solution. That is all that is needed.

The initial setup is straightforward. We can complete the entire deployment in less than 30 minutes and it does not involve any manual configuration. It is fully automated. I have completed more than 100 deployments and have not faced any issues. 

Once Klocwork is installed and configured as part of your automation pattern, there is no maintenance required.
