For managers who are overseeing Java development teams, maintaining consistent coding standards and practices is a monumental challenge. Missed deadlines, reports of problems in the field and constant bug fixes are all symptoms of poor coding standards and practices. Fortunately, comprehensive code quality management applications are emerging that bring proven process standards to the development cycle, enabling managers to enforce code quality and track issues back to specific developers. By enforcing quality standards, problems can be proactively identified before applications are released, dramatically simplifying the development manager's job. This paper will examine the challenges faced by development managers and introduce how code quality management solutions that employ code Precision Team ManagementSM bring needed order to Java development teams.
