COBOL Source Code Metrics

The COBOL Metrics tool computes a number of useful metrics for COBOL program source code suites. It is a member of SD's family of Source Code Metrics tools. An example of the COBOL Metrics tool results can be seen here.

COBOL Metrics Features

• Repeatable operation across specified set of files
• Metrics computed at paragraph, section, division and file level:
  • Source Lines of Code (SLOC)
  • Noncommented Source Lines of Code
  • Comment Lines
  • Number of Methods
  • Decision Density
  • Cyclomatic Complexity
  • Maximum loop nesting
  • Maximum conditional nesting
  • Halstead measures (volume, difficulty and effort)
  • Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Maintainability Index
• Worst-case nesting metrics pinpointed to specific file/line
• Summaries per section/division/file
• Text report
• XML report, reformattable in any way desired (example)
