Abstract

A method is disclosed for the computer-assisted analysis of a software source code. According to at least one embodiment of the method, the software source code is analyzed in consideration of parameters comprising encoding rules and/or encoding metrics, wherein as the analysis result errors detected in the software source code are calculated. The errors detected are classified by way of associating them with at lest one error category from a plurality of error categories. To this end, a specification that can be output via a user interface is associated with each error category, which describes the errors of the respective error category. The error categories with which the detected errors are associated are then output via a user interface.
