CyclomaticComplexity

+

Description

+ +

+Checks cyclomatic complexity against a specified limit. The complexity is +measured by the number of + if, + while, + do, + for, + ?:, + catch, + switch, + case statements, and operators + && and || (plus one) in the body of a +constructor, method, static initializer, or instance initializer. + It is a measure of the minimum number of possible paths through the +source and therefore the number of required tests. Generally 1-4 is +considered good, 5-7 ok, 8-10 consider re-factoring, and 11+ re-factor now! +
