freud is a Java library typically used in Code Quality, Code Analyzer applications. freud has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Freud gives the users an easy way to define their own static analysis tests. Unlike other common analysis tools such as checkstyle, PMD or findbugs, it does not attempt to provide out-of-the-box generic tests. Those are good in many ways, but they are also far too generic. With Freud, the users can force a rule that is specific to the code base or easily create their own twist or variant of a "common" rule. Using a DSL for every supported type of analysed entity, Freud allows users to define their own targeted test. What you get is the ability to write a test specifically tailored to your code and asserts your conventions. The usage of a DSL also means the rules are concise and readable. Freud is completely pluggable meaning you can easily write your own hamcrest matcher and assert anything you like. Freud will accept any matcher - not just its own pre-defined set of matchers. Although written in Java and initially targeted towards analysing Java sources, Freud is also not restricted to any specific source or content type.
