FindBugs looks for bugs in Java programs. It is based on the concept of bug
patterns. A bug pattern is a code idiom that is often an error. Bug patterns
arise for a variety of reasons:
* Difficult language features
* Misunderstood API methods
* Misunderstood invariants when code is modified during maintenance
* Garden variety mistakes: typos, use of the wrong boolean operator
FindBugs uses static analysis to inspect Java bytecode for occurrences of
bug patterns.
