Compare Source

Changes:

• The annotations that were previously in error_prone_type_annotations have been been merged into error_prone_annotations. error_prone_type_annotations is now deprecated, and will be removed in a future release.

New checks:

• IntFloatConversion - Detect calls to scalb that should be using the double overload instead
• InvalidSnippet - Detects snippets which omit the : required for inline code.
• JUnit4EmptyMethods - Detects empty JUnit4 @Before, @After, @BeforeClass, and @AfterClass methods.
• MockIllegalThrows - Detects cases where Mockito is configured to throw checked exception types which are impossible.
• NegativeBoolean - Prefer positive boolean names.
• RuleNotRun - Detects TestRules not annotated with @Rule, that won't be run.
• StringConcatToTextBlock - Replaces concatenated multiline strings with text blocks.
• TimeInStaticInitializer - Detects accesses of the system time in static contexts.
