JADE Environment Development Ideas

We regularly produce code metrics to report on the health of our code base. Part of this is taking the Code Coverage files (CCD) from regular unit test runs, convert these to CSV and then match this up with the methods that have been created/modif...

For a few years now there have been discussions on how Jade could be improved by including a new and modern take on source control, utilising industry accepted tools or ideas. A vote here is firstly then to confirm you still feel this is important...

Currently in JADE, there is no warning if a later version of a class or method is being overwritten by an earlier version (based on the method TimeStamp in the schema load file). It would be useful to have an option in the Jade "Advanced Load Opti...

Implement JCF rename command for methods. Provides ability to rename methods on deployment, with references being maintained automatically, without needing to redeploy whole schemas. For conditions, there's an added benefit of avoiding unnecessary...

It would be good to see the unassigned 'output' parameter shown at compile time.

As part of recent work, we needed to decommission an old application, with its initialize/finalize methods in particular referring to redundant code. Previously, we'd have just deleted the initialize/finalize methods via a JCF command, but there's...

Since jade v5 through to present there have been many INI keys and sections that have been added, deleted and changed but there has never been a safe and easy method to sanity check and verify correct syntax and values. As INI updates are typical...

It would be useful to enhance the reporting of 1090 exceptions to clearly show the token that represents the null. It is currently possible to work it out, but JADE could present the information to help people out.

It would be great if we can compare to environment code via *.mul extract files. If we can take a *.mul, *.scm files from one environment and have the other environment parse this file and do a diff between methods/class changes and produce an HTM...

A combination of business demands and a transition to more agile software delivery techniques sees us needing to deploy code to the next jade environment in the chain through to production at ever more frequent rates. Previously for Test bases thi...
