Working with code review findings

For each code review finding, you can review details, open the source code editor, and get more information.

To work with the findings from a code review:

1. In the Code Review view, expand each folder, which tells you the category of rules applied and the number of findings in the category, to see the findings in it.

2. Review each finding to learn the details of every instance where code did not adhere to a rule applied in the code review. From left to right, each finding contains the following information:
   • The icon indicates the severity level of the rule that was not adhered to and, in some instances, that a quick fix is available to resolve the finding.

   • The file name specifies where the code is located, and the line number is also provided.

   • The rule stated is the one that produced the finding.

3. Double-click a finding to get more information on it. Details about a finding appear in two places:
   • See the source code editor that displays and highlights the code where the finding occurs.

   • Read the Code Review Details view that describes the finding in more detail and provides examples and solutions to correct it.
