Integrate Decca-Maven in Slack
with Axolo

Decca-Maven is a GitHub application that helps diagnose dependency conflict issues for Maven-Java projects. The service is based on a bot called Decca, which can analyze whether there is a dependency conflict issue causing NoSuchMethodError or other issues introduced into a project, once developers change their dependency management script or source code. Decca can capture dependency conflicts in five possible scenarios, including conflicts in library versions, classes among libraries, classes between client project and libraries, conflicts interfered by dynamic binding mechanism, and conflicts caused by circular dependencies.

The service diagnoses dependency conflicts based on the installing rules of Maven and submits issue reports and PRs to warn projects against dependency conflicts. The technique used by Decca has been published on ESEC/FSE 2018, the ACM SIGSOFT flagship conference, in a paper entitled "Do the Dependency Conflicts in My Project Matter?"

In summary, Decca-Maven is a valuable tool for developers who want to avoid dependency conflicts in their Maven-Java projects. It helps diagnose and warn against such conflicts, ensuring that the project runs smoothly and without errors.
