| 1 | A large number of triggers | Show user-defined triggers if there are more than 9 different trigger routine bodies, i.e., different triggers on different tables that do the same thing count as one trigger. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-12-25 11:23 | MIT License | |
| 2 | All event triggers | Find event triggers, which are not associated to a specific schema object. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2020-12-24 14:54 | MIT License | |
| 3 | All rules | Find user-defined rules for rewriting data manipulation language statements. Rules should be used only for the tasks that cannot be achieved in a declarative manner, i.e., for example, by declaring a constraint. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2023-12-22 12:30 | MIT License | |
| 4 | All user triggers that are associated with tables | Find user-defined triggers that react to data modifications in tables. Triggers should be used only for the tasks that cannot be achieved in a declarative manner, i.e., by declaring a constraint. Triggers of the same table with the same event_manipulation, action_timing, and action_orientation are sorted based on the trigger name. This is the order of execution of triggers. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-01-19 11:27 | MIT License | |
| 5 | AND takes precedence over OR | Make sure that Boolean expressions take into account precedence rules of Boolean operators. AND operator has precedence over OR operator. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2020-11-06 14:51 | MIT License | |
| 6 | Database objects of the same type and case insensitive name in the same container | Find database objects with the same type and case insensitive name in the same container. It can only happen if some of the names are case insensitive and others are case sensitive. For instance, the same schema can contain the table "Client" and client | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2024-12-21 17:13 | MIT License | |
| 7 | Different tasks of rules | Find different tasks that are solved by using rules, i.e., different rules on the same table or different tables that do the same thing are considered to solve one task. | General | system catalog base tables only | 2024-01-14 16:10 | MIT License | |
| 8 | Different tasks of triggers | Find different tasks that are solved by using triggers, i.e., different triggers on the same table or different tables that do the same thing are considered to solve one task. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2024-01-04 00:53 | MIT License | |
| 9 | Disabled rules | Identify disabled rules. These should be enabled or dropped, otherwise these are dead code. | Problem detection | system catalog base tables only | 2022-10-21 11:22 | MIT License | |
| 10 | Disabled system triggers (i.e., disabled enforcement of constraints) | These triggers should be enabled because otherwise some important functionality regarding constraints like enforcing referential integrity does not work. | Problem detection | system catalog base tables only | 2021-03-12 15:06 | MIT License | |
| 11 | Disabled user triggers | Identify disabled triggers. These should be enabled or dropped, otherwise these are dead code. | Problem detection | system catalog base tables only | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 12 | Double negatives in Boolean expressions | Write code that is simple to understand and not confusing. A double negative is a grammatical construction occurring when two forms of negation are used in the same expression (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_negative). Double negatives in Boolean expressions make it more difficult to understand and maintain the code. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-25 17:29 | MIT License | |
| 13 | Double negatives in regular expressions | Fing regular expression patterns that use [^\S] instead of \s or [^\D] instead of \d or [^\W] instead of \w. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-11-09 12:01 | MIT License | |
| 14 | Duplicate rules | Find multiple rules with the same definition (event, condition, action) on the same table. Do remember that the same task can be solved in SQL usually in multiple different ways. Thus, the exact copies are not the only possible duplication. | Problem detection | system catalog base tables only | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 15 | Duplicate specification of character classes | Find regular expressions where within the same specification of a character class the character class alnum as well as 0-9, \d, A-Z, or a-z has been defined. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-12-24 10:43 | MIT License | |
| 16 | Duplicate triggers | Find cases where the same table has multiple triggers with the same type (row-level, statement-level) that react to the same event with the same WHEN condition and with the same way (by invoking the same function). | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 17 | Inconsistent referencing to character classes | Find as to whether regular expressions use inconsistently references to character classes: [^\s], [^\d], [^\w], [^[:space:]], [^[:digit:]], [^[:word:]] vs [^\S], [^\D], [^\W]. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-11-09 12:02 | MIT License | |
| 18 | Inconsistent referencing to character classes (digits) | Find as to whether different syntaxes (e.g., 0-9 vs [[:digit:]] or \d) are used to refer to the character class of digits within the same database. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-11-01 11:57 | MIT License | |
| 19 | Inconsistent referencing to character classes (shorthand vs long name) | Find as to whether different syntaxes (e.g., \s vs [[:space:]]) are used to refer to character classes within the same database. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2024-11-19 11:24 | MIT License | |
| 20 | Inconsistent referencing to character classes (shorthand vs long name) (2) | Find as to whether different syntaxes (e.g., \w vs [[:alnum:]]) are used to refer to alphanumeric characters within the database. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2024-11-19 11:32 | MIT License | |
