Detect Static Dependencies
Scan a C# codebase for calls to hard-to-test static APIs and produce a ranked report showing which statics appear most frequently, which files are most affected, and which abstractions already exist in the .NET ecosystem to replace them.
When to Use
- Auditing a project's testability before adding unit tests
- Understanding the scope of static coupling in a legacy codebase
- Prioritizing which statics to wrap first (highest-frequency wins)
- Creating a migration plan for incremental testability improvements
When Not to Use
- The user wants wrappers generated (hand off to
generate-testability-wrappers) - The user wants mechanical migration done (hand off to
migrate-static-to-wrapper) - The statics are already behind interfaces or
TimeProvider - The code is not C# / .NET
