Software Architecture Management in SonarQube

on YouTube ↗18m

" summary

SonarQube extracts a current architecture on every scan and displays it as a navigable map (classes, packages, modules) with pan/zoom and high‑level views; teams build an intended architecture model of containers and allowed relationships, add placeholders or request moves/renames, and the scanner flags mismatches — deviations create SonarQube issues that link to offending lines of code. The demo shows automated detection of cyclic tangles, surfacing specific class-to-class references and directives that drive developer remediation.
