Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for heuristically generated suggestions in static code analysis. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for heuristically suggesting an asset transition in a code analysis tool can include receiving from an end user a request to select an asset of a computer program subject to static code analysis by a code analysis tool and selecting in response and contemporaneously to the request, an asset from amongst many assets during static code analysis of a computer program in a code analysis tool. The method further can include determining a set of assets amongst the many assets historically selected by other users of the code analysis tool during static code analysis subsequent to a selection of the contemporaneously selected asset. Finally, the method can include displaying to the end user a suggestion of a next asset for selection that had been frequently selected by the other users of the code analysis tool during static code analysis of the assets of the computer program subsequent to a selection of the contemporaneously selected asset.
