NDepend 6
Again I get from Patrick Smacchia an opportunity to test new version of NDepend - this time version 6. If you don’t know, NDepend is a tool that measure and present information about code metrics in your .Net
code. It can run as standalone application, but also as Visual Studio plugin.
DevDay 2015
