Working with Code Inspections
With TeamCity's server-side code inspection the whole project code base is tested as often as you need. Your computer is kept free, so no real development time is lost. All of your changes to the source code are integrated into the code base and checked to make sure that they conform to coding standards, guidelines, etc.
TeamCity plugin enables you to:
Examine results of server-side code inspections without leaving the IDE either in the editor or in the Inspection tool window.
Apply quick fixes (suggested solutions to the problems discovered during the inspection).
To inspect your code remotely on the server-side, a build configuration with the Inspection build runner pointed to the project file should be created. After TeamCity creates a build, you can review the issues found in the IDE, and the server-side inspection report is loaded into the editor. The coding violations are highlighted in the gutter; you can customize the highlight color in the Colors and Fonts dialog.
Please note that the view of the inspection results downloaded from the server is the same as the one of run locally.
