What is StyleCop?

StyleCop (formally known as Source Analysis) is a code analysis tool from Microsoft. It checks C# code for conformance to StyleCop's recommended coding styles and Microsoft's .NET Framework Design Guidelines. StyleCop analyzes the source code, allowing it to enforce a different set of rules from FxCop (Code Analysis). The rules are classified into categories including following:

· Documentation

· Layout

· Maintainability

· Naming

· Ordering

· Readability

· Spacing
