Mendix Quality Analysis
All your Mendix quality insights in one (Saas) platform
The Omnext Fit Test Platform has been developed by Omnext to enable clients to analyse and monitor the technical quality of their applications in a fully automated way. The platform currently supports over 50 different technologies, varying from regular-code technologies such as JAVA, JavaScript and C# to low-code technologies such as Mendix.
The Fit Test platform allows users to perform what can be best described as an ‘automated peer review’, analysing your entire Mendix model including added custom code. By running the analyses on a frequent basis, the platform provides insight in quality characteristics based on the ISO-25010 guideline for software quality, such as Maintainability, Performance, Reliability and Security, Open Source and Mendix best practices.
Portfolio management
Monitor the quality of your Mendix apps
The Fit Test Platform provides users with the key evaluation information. The Dashboard shows the Overall Risk Score, Risk Scores per risk area (Maintainability, Security, Performance, Reliability and Open Source) and number of findings.
Users can also focus results per technology (Mendix, JAVA, Open Source), or to focus on results per specific module or even Appstore vs Custom modules.
A Heatmap shows which parts of an application (modules) require attention the most.
Quality analysis
Pinpoint findings and improvement area’s
Deep dive into the evaluation results. Where the Dashboard shows overall risk scores, the Risk Findings view shows all findings per specific Best Practice Rule.
This view shows exactly how many, and where findings have been found. It also offers the possibility to accept findings by whitelisting them. Any whitelisted findings will be logged and create an audit trail for other users.
Use the Source Viewer to evaluate and pinpoint findings in ‘regular code’ technologies such as JAVA which may have been used in your Mendix app as well. These results are highlighted on the line-of-code level so users know exactly which lines of JAVA code contain findings.
Access Rule analysis
Identify security risks in implemented Access Rules
Unique to the Omnext Fit Test platform is the capacity to analyze which Project- and User Roles are implemented in a solution and show to which entities, attributes, microflows and nanoflows these roles have access to (CRUDE). We call this the Access Rule Analysis feature and it allows users to identify potential security risks due to ‘wrong’ access configurations.
Open Source Analysis
Identify security and legal risks in used Open Source components
In addition to the Access Rule Analysis, the Omnext Fit Test platform also analyses any used Open Source components (.JAR’s) and automatically verifies whether these are up-to-date, which (potential risky) licenses are applicable and if these Open Source components contain any known security vulnerabilities (NIST database).
