Is anyone in the OpenStack community using automated tools to perform code 
analysis?

If not, are you familiar with such tools that will work with python? We're 
specifically interested in tools that can be used to provide rapid feedback to 
developers about potentially dangerous code (for example, SQL statements that 
are not scrubbed, query strings that are not properly validated). I've used 
such tools in the past for PHP and other languages, but I'm kind of at a loss 
when it comes to python.

What we'd really like to see is for someone to pick up the "security" task and 
run with it, with regular penetration testing and detailed analytics so that we 
can ensure that OpenStack products are reliably secure. Automated code testing 
is an early step in that process.
