Codacy is an automated code review platform for Python, Ruby, PHP, Java, JavaScript and Scala programming languages.[1] It integrates several open source static analysis tools[2] and also offers rules from other internally developed tools.
Users can check code for security and duplication issues, accuracy, complexity, coding style and other metrics. The platform also parses logs from code coverage tools and presents the evolution of code coverage side by side with the other software metrics.
Codacy is configurable, allowing code patterns to be enabled or disabled. It integrates with GitHub, Bitbucket, JIRA, YouTrack, Heroku, HipChat and Slack. Codacy also offers an Enterprise version that runs in the clients' servers and integrates with Jenkins, GitHub Enterprise, Bitbucket Server and GitLab.
Codacy is free for open-source software projects, and offers paid accounts for software developers who wish to have private repositories.
History
- Codacy started out as Qamine with funding from Seedcamp in 2012.[3]
- In 2013, co-founders Jaime Jorge (CEO) and Joao Caxaria (CTO) raised $500,000 of investment from Espírito Santo Ventures and Faber Ventures, rebranded the company as Codacy, and re-launched in beta mode.[4][5]
- In 2014 Codacy launched the freemium model for software engineers[6][7] and won the Pitch competition at the Web Summit in Dublin.[8][9][10] At that point Codacy was reported to have over 3,000 users.[11]
- In January 2015, Codacy was stated to have analysed over nine billion lines of code in 2014 and detected close to 1.4 billion instances of imperfect or faulty code in the process[12]
- In the final quarter of 2015 Codacy raised another $1.1M in investment, in a round led by Caixa Capital with participation from Faber Ventures, Espírito Santo Ventures, Join Capital and angel investor Henrique de Castro, the former COO of Yahoo. By then, the number of users had risen to over 8,000.[13][14][15]
- In October 2016, the UK edition of Wired listed Lisbon for the first time in its annual ranking of "The Hottest Startup Cities" in Europe, referring to Codacy and other Lisbon-based startups.[16][17][18]
- In November 2016, the British newspaper The Guardian reported that Codacy had grown its user base to more than 25,000 developers worldwide, and revenues by 300% in the past 12 months. Its clients include Adobe, Deliveroo and Cancer Research UK.[19]
