'''Code reviewing software''' is computer [[software]] that helps humans find flaws in program [[source code]].
See [[Automated code review]] article.
It can be divided into two categories:
* [[Automated code review]] software checks [[source code]] against a predefined set of rules and produces reports.
* Different types of browsers visualise software structure and help humans better understand its structure. Such systems are geared more to analysis because they typically do not contain a predefined set of rules to check software against.
