clean-code-ch07-error-handling

Detect bad exception handling by auditing exception usage, try-catch structure, and context. This checker flags misuses like poor error context, tangled nested blocks, and return code anti-patterns during code reviews or CI checks, guiding refactoring for robust error handling.

Separate error handling from business logic by enforcing clean practices like the Special Case pattern and wrapping third-party APIs. This approach untangles nested try-catch blocks and ensures your main code flow remains readable and focused on core functionality.

Yes, this error handling checker works with Python, Java, C#, and other languages. It audits your codebase to enforce clean error-handling practices regardless of the specific language, checking for misuse of return codes, nulls, and exception context.

Use unchecked exceptions instead of error codes to improve code quality and robustness. This checker enforces guidelines by promoting unchecked exceptions and caller-oriented messages, ensuring errors are contextualized rather than hidden within misleading return values.

Prevent null returns and passes by auditing your codebase for null safety anti-patterns. This checker enforces best practices by flagging null returns and promoting alternatives like the Special Case pattern, ensuring robust error handling and eliminating null-related runtime errors.
