Would a blog entry on Java.net here count as a better source? I'm not sure. --Wrldwzrd89^talk 12:40, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with SpotBugs[edit]

SpotBugs doesn't appear to have any independent notability. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 05:14, 30 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge to FindBugs. No need for two separate articles. In fact, for people looking into this area, having two articles actually makes their research more difficult.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:11, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Boldy merged just now - there is really very little justification for having separate articles. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:06, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article needs some expansion into context about SpotBugs[edit]

The current description for SpotBugs talks about its timeframe and its plug-ins, but it doesn't give us much detail about how SpotBugs is applied in software development scenarios. Is it possible to extend the section and provide some examples on how SpotBugs can be applied?

E.g., how SpotBugs could impact the fault localization process in an organization. Inlin (talk) 20:36, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
