Checkstyle is a development tool to help programmers write Java code that adheres to a coding standard. By default it supports the Google Java Style Guide and Sun Code Conventions, but is highly configurable. It can be invoked with an ANT task and a command line program.

Back-end DeveloperContributions:2 reviews, 31 PRs, 6 comments in 2 years 1 month
Contributions summary:Tahanima's commits primarily focus on removing "//ok" comments from test resource files related to various Checkstyle modules, including javancss, javadocstyle, modifierorder, methodcount, nolinewrap, declarationorder, magicnumber, matchxpath, parameterassignment, executablestatementcount, whitespaceafter, typecastparenpad, regexp, regexpmultiline, emptylineseparator, regexpsingleline, emptyforiteratorpad, regexponfilename, and suppresswithnearbycommentfilter. These changes involve modifying existing Java test files to remove redundant comments. This suggests the user was involved in code cleanup or refactoring of test cases.
