Subject: Tools for Ruby code analysis

Hello everyone,

I'm new in Ruby and I'm looking for analysis tools like Pylint and
Pymetrics (for Python). I have already tried those ones:
- Kwala (that looks very interresting and which is a group of other
tools),
- Saikuro,
- Metric_fu.

But all the time, something is going wrong:
- Kwala doesn't work with Ruby 1.9.2 because of Amrita which requires
ftools; Kwala is working with Ruby 1.8 but not entirely: some features
don't work.
- Saikuro works pretty well with Ruby 1.8.7 :) ... but doesn't work with
Ruby 1.9.2, anyway Saikuro makes only an complexity analysis, and not
all the features (theoretically) offered by Kwala.
- For Metric_fu, the installation with Rubygems simply doesn't work.

In order to test those tools, I 'm forced to have differents versions of
Ruby and try each tool on each version! I'm very surprised by the poor
quality of these tools, and of Ruby itself which not maintains
compatibility. It's a pity because it gave me a bad impression of
Ruby...

So I would like to know which tools do you use, and if there are others
tools like that, but which are working!

Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Have a good day :)
Alex
