Measuring Code Quality: Qualitative and Quantitative

DZone

JULY 19, 2021

Code Quality defines that the code is good, which means code is of high quality, and code is bad, which means code is of low quality. The quality can be subjective, so different teams may use different definitions based on the context. But how can I measure that the code I have written is of good quality?
