NDepend is a tool that simplifies managing a complex .NET code base. Architects and developers can analyze code structure, specify design rules, plan massive refactoring, do effective code reviews and master evolution by comparing different versions of the code.

The result is better communication, improved quality, easier maintenance and faster development.

NDepend supports the Code Query Language (CQL) for maximum flexibility. CQL will help you answer in seconds your questions about your code base:

- Which public methods have more than 30 lines of code?
SELECT METHODS WHERE NbLinesOfCode > 30 AND IsPublic
- Which classes implement System.IDisposable?
SELECT TYPES WHERE IsClass AND Implements "System.IDisposable"
- Which methods have been refactored recently and is not thoroughly covered by tests?
SELECT METHODS WHERE CodeWasChanged AND PercentageCoverage < 100
