About:
Psalm is a static analysis tool for PHP that detects errors in PHP code by examining the code without running it. It helps developers identify type errors, null pointer exceptions, and other potential bugs before runtime. The tool provides detailed insights into code quality and type safety, making it essential for maintaining large PHP codebases.
|
Key Features:
- Type inference and checking
- Dead code detection
- Security vulnerability scanning
- IDE integration
- Custom rule creation
|
Use Cases:
