Increase your ALM's quality with this Free VS PowerTool (CodeMetrics)

Increase your ALM's quality with this Free VS PowerTool (CodeMetrics) :
"Visual Studio Code Metrics PowerTool 10.0" is just too excellent. With this new PowerTool, you can monitor Code Metric directly from within your automated build.

I know ... THE BEST and exhaustive tool around (and my favorite one) is NDepend. Obviously, since this PowerTool is provided free of charge, it has a millions of times less functionalities than NDepend, but still good if you have nothing else !

Integrating Code Metrics in TFS 2010 Build

Once the PowerTool installed you'll have to create your own custom activity and insert it into your Workflow build process.

I wish such tools will appear more and more, and be integrated within TFS by default... Brian Harry please ;-)
