Overview

Quality Assurance Tool (QAT) is a comprehensive solution designed to perform assessment, discover technical debt, and help improve technical quality of the applications. The QAT Tool is designed to ensure technical governance around best practices, feature adoption and standards being followed in the implementations, thereby helping reduce the risk and improve overall technical code quality of the application. The tool would not provide any provision to resolve the identifications; rather it would report the technical health of the application, which then needs further review and planning for remediation. 

QAT MLP1 release reviews an extensive list of rule types for coding practices to discover and evaluate design consistency, scalability, and extensibility, according to industry-recognized implementation principles, best practices, and compliance with Pega’s standards. These have been proven to deliver the quality implementation at minimal cost and risk to your organization by taking prompt actions based on results from QAT Kit.
