The essential role of Code Analysis and Quality Assurance in the Insurance Market
Accelerate Guidewire development with clean code
Accelerate Guidewire development with clean code
GoQu is a state-of-the-art code analyzer designed to identify the most critical issues in your Gosu code.
Enhance productivity and efficiency by reducing the workload on senior developers and code reviewers.
Gain insights into your code's health with detailed reports. These reports highlight critical issues, progress over time, and actionable recommendations, empowering IT leaders to make informed decisions. This feature is a part of GoQu Hub
Potential code issues are detected real time and highlighted directly in code. GoQu's QuickFix feature allows you to resolve coding errors instantly with just a click, ensuring efficient and error-free code management. This not only speeds up the development process but also reduces the need for manual corrections and minimizing the chance of human error. This feature is a part of GoQu Dev.
Rules
implemented
2017
We build GoQu together. Over 50% of the features and improvements implemented in 2024 came directly from clients requests. Your code deserves bespoke solutions and we support that.
GoQu currently provides 163 pre-defined rules and still growing. You can also modify and customize the behavior of certain rules to better fit your project. Tracking bugs, code smells and vulnerabilities, each rule is explained in depth, augmented with code examples and sources, to ensure your team is on the same page.
GoQu provides precise time estimates for resolving issues detected in code. This feature helps in project planning and resource allocation, ensuring timely delivery of software.
GoQu’s adherence to OWASP and CWE standards ensures that your software is secure from common vulnerabilites. GoQu rates severity of issuess according to the global standards. This way your team stays focused on solving major blockers instead of discussing the priorites.
GoQu receives regular updates to ensure its compatibility with the latest version of Guidewire and SonarQube. Additionally, GoQu offers pull request decorators, commit scope analysis, merge prevention, and every other out-of-the-box SonarQube feature for the Gosu language. It ensures that you can quickly enhance your development workflow by leveraging these features for better code quality and integration efficiency.
Advantages and benefits
An average development team made
mistakes while you were reading this website.
GoQu offers the highest number of rules among its competitors, auto-fixing of code defects thanks to GoQu Quickfix, and supports every version of Guidewire from 8 to Cloud. GoQu tracks unit tests and measures their coverage, cyclomatic complexity, and many other metrics.
Currently, it is not possible to write custom rules. However, many rules have "parameters" that can be set and modified by the user to customize the behavior of certain rules. For example, the rule "Suffix on Class names" (ExampleClass_Ext)
allows clients to set their own accepted suffixes (ExampleClass_AXA)
. The possibility of allowing users to create their own rules is on the current roadmap for 2024.
Yes, GoQu is independent and compatible with other code analysis tools. Users can use CodeNarc, Guidewire Studio inspections, and much more concurrently.
Yes, GoQu offers pull request decorators, commit scope analysis, merge prevention, and every other out-of-the-box SonarQube feature for the Gosu language.
GoQu Dev is a plug-and-play solution that does not require any additional configuration. Installing it on the developer IDE takes only a couple of clicks (<1 minute). GoQu Hub requires SonarQube. While the installation of GoQu Hub is simply a file copy-paste (<1 minute), the installation and configuration of SonarQube may require up to 20 minutes.
No, GoQu Hub supports any licensing model, including the free Community Edition.
Yes, GoQu can recognize OOTB files, classes, and code, filtering them out of the analysis. It also highlights and reports custom code that was added or edited in OOTB Guidewire files.
GoQu receives two major updates a year, as well as minor patches and hot fixes occasionally.
Yes, GoQu Hub provides a comprehensive quality overview of Gosu and Guidewire projects, as well as detailed analysis of code, unit test coverage, complexity metrics and much more via SonarQube UI.
Through GoQu Quality Reports, we provide in depth reports of your project health, technical debt translated to financial assessments, security and maintainability, based on Guidewire requirements and best practices, Sollers 20+ years of experience in Gosu development and protocols such as OWASP and CWE.
SLA, Code Quality Report, new releases, feedback sessions, installation support, and impact on the roadmap.
Yes. GoQu offers four default color styles, and offers full customisation of the colours and font style.
Yes, it is possible to control GoQu configuration via SonarQube and propagate its configuration to every developers IDE. For example,
rules could be customised or disabled or analyiss exceptions added, then synchronised across GoQu users via "Connected Mode".
No, GoQu fully operates locally and offline. It does not communicate with external services nor collect any data.
