Source code validation tool

Abstract:

A source code validation tool includes a source code database monitor, a parser, a file converter, a source code validator, and an alert engine. The source code database monitor detects that a change has occurred to a source code file. In response, the file converter transforms the source code file into an extensible markup language file. The parser extracts a plurality of words from the extensible markup language file. The parser also compares each word of the plurality of words against a naming convention and determines whether each word follows the naming convention based on the comparison. The source code validator determines a plurality of tests that should be executed against the source code file and determines whether each test of the plurality of tests passed. The alert engine communicates a message indicating whether a word did not follow the naming convention and a test failed.
