Samenvatting	Static code analysis automatically examines source code without execution, detecting potential bugs, security vulnerabilities, code smells, and style violations. Pioneered by Engler and Pugh (2001), automated analysis tools scan codebases at scale, identifying defect patterns faster than manual review. Organizations integrate static analysis into continuous integration pipelines to prevent defects early.	Defect prediction models forecast the likelihood of software faults in code modules using statistical or machine learning approaches. Pioneered by Ostrand, Weyuker, and Bell (2005), these models correlate code metrics (complexity, churn, coupling) with historical defect data to identify high-risk components. Organizations use predictions to allocate testing resources, guide code review, and prioritize refactoring.
