1. A method implemented in a computer infrastructure having computer executable code tangibly embodied on a computer readable storage memory having programming instructions operable to:

  • receive a tool error output determined by a code inspection service;

    determine an identification of a code inspection tool used by the code inspection service to generate the tool error output;

    select at least one defect classification mapping profile that is specific to the identified code inspection tool;

    map the tool error output to one or more output classifications using the selected at least one defect classification mapping profile; and

    generate at least one report based on the one or more output classifications,wherein the determining the identification of the code inspection tool used by the code inspection service to generate the tool error output comprises comparing the tool error output received from the code inspection service to a listing of possible error outputs for a plurality of code inspection tools; and

    the selecting the at least one defect classification mapping profile that is specific to the identified code inspection tool comprises selecting the at least one defect classification mapping profile from a defect analysis storage system comprising a plurality of classification mapping profiles for each of the plurality of code inspection tools.
