When should you compare builds?
Typically, the build comparison would be most helpful in two situations:
- You have upgraded to a new version of Validate. We recommend running your final pre-upgrade analysis and your first Validate analysis on identical source code, and then comparing the two builds, so that you can properly assess the changes in your analysis results due to improvements in our analysis engine.
- You want to compare your current build with a milestone build (such as a recent product release)
For other comparisons, reports probably better suit your needs.
