The IT world is rife with jargon — and “as code” is no exception. “As code” means simplifying complex and time-consuming tasks by automating some, or all, of their processes. Today, the composable nature of code enables skilled IT teams to create and customize automated solutions capable of improving efficiency.

Static code analysis allows you to identify and eliminate many defects at an early stage. Let's look at an example of such a dormant error. Moreover, it's possible to detect dormant errors that don't show themselves when they appear. They can cause many problems in the future and it requires many hours of debugging to detect them.
