Nah, static tools can catch that complexity stuff easily.

Totally agree, but I'm surprised that cyclomatic complexity isn't flagged by tools.

Endless loops can be found by static analysis too, right?

I think design conformance is also best caught in reviews.

Cyclomatic complexity seems like something that could be identified in both static analysis and code reviews, but I think design conformance is unique to reviews.

I feel like we had a practice question about endless loops, but I can't recall if those can be detected in code reviews or just through static analysis.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think conformance to coding standards is something that can only be fully assessed through code reviews.

I remember we discussed how code reviews can catch issues that static analysis might miss, especially related to design.

This is a good test of my understanding of the strengths and limitations of static analysis versus code reviews. I'll need to carefully consider each option to determine which defects can only be found through manual inspection.

Interesting question. I'm guessing the answer has to do with the more subjective, design-related issues that static analysis can't easily detect. I'll review the options and try to identify the best answer.

Okay, let's see. I think conformance to coding standards and design would be the ones that can only be found through manual review, not automated tools. I'll go with those.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know static analysis tools can catch a lot of issues, but I'll need to think carefully about which defects are unique to code reviews.

This looks like a straightforward question on the benefits of code reviews. I'll focus on identifying the defect types that can only be found through code reviews.
