Lizard Complexity Metrics Now Power File-Level Analysis and Gates

We are excited to share that Lizard, Codacy's recently integrated tool for detecting and reporting code complexity issues, has been enhanced and now impacts several key areas of your development workflow.

What's New?

Lizard now influences:

• File-level complexity scores: Complexity assessments at the file level are now more accurate, reflecting the cumulative complexity of all methods within a file.
  
  
• Complexity quality gates: Quality gates based on complexity metrics are now more reliable, helping maintain high code quality standards.
  
  Dashboard complexity metrics: The metrics displayed on your dashboard now incorporate Lizard's analysis, providing a more precise overview of your project's complexity.

These updates provide a more consistent and comprehensive evaluation of code complexity, aiding developers in maintaining clean and efficient codebases.
