This plugin provides utilities for the static code analysis plugins. Jenkins can parse the results
file from various Code Analysis tools such as CheckStyle, FindBugs, PMD etc. For each
corresponding code analysis tool, a plugin in Jenkins needs to be installed.

Additionally the add-on plugin Static Analysis Collector is available that combines the
individual results of these plugins into a single trend graph and view.

The plugins can provide information such as

 The total number of warnings in a job

 A showing of the new and fixed warnings of a build
