Find code issues in specific scope

Inspect code in solution, project or in a custom scope

1. Decide whether you want the results of the solution-wide inspections (for example, unused public members) to be included in the report. If you want these results to be included, enable the solution wide-analysis. Note that when solution-wide analysis is enabled, JetBrains Rider has to analyze the whole solution even if you need to inspect a single project, so be prepared that it takes more time.

2. Do one of the following:

   • In the main menu, choose Code | Inspect Code...

   • You can also inspect code in the desired scope with a single inspection of your choice — for example, you may want to check whether there are properties that could be converted to auto-properties.

     To run a single inspection, press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+I or choose Code | Analyze Code | Run Inspection by Name… from the main menu , and then start typing the name of the inspection:

     

   • In the Solution Explorer, select items (files, folders, projects, solution folders) that you want to inspect, right-click the selection and choose Inspect Code... in the context menu.

3. In the dialog that opens, specify the scope where the code should be inspected.

4. The Inspection Results window will open displaying detected code issues.
