FindBugs is an open source program created by William Pugh which looks for bugs in Java code[1][2]. It uses static analysis[1] [3] to identify hundreds of different potential types of error [1] in Java programs. FindBugs operates on Java bytecode[3] , rather than source code. It includes both a stand alone GUI and an Eclipse plug-in. A Netbeans plug-in is also available.[4]
