About:
FauxPas is a static analyzer for Objective-C, Swift, and C/C++ code that identifies subtle bugs, logic errors, and bad practices that compilers often miss. It provides deep code analysis to improve application stability and maintainability. The tool integrates with Xcode to provide real-time feedback during development.
Key Features:
  • Detects non-obvious bugs and logic errors
  • Supports Objective-C, Swift, C, and C++
  • Provides detailed explanations for found issues
  • Integrates directly with Xcode workflows
Use Cases:
  • Preventing subtle bugs from reaching production in iOS/macOS apps
  • Code quality auditing for Objective-C and Swift projects
Alternatives:
  • Infer – Open-source static analyzer from Facebook, focused on interprocedural analysis
  • SonarQube – Broader code quality platform supporting multiple languages and metrics
