Techniques are described for preventing customers from receiving faulty code. The techniques involve adding marker code (108) to potentially problematic code portions (106) that are not to be included in a final version of the code (104). The marker code (108) may include a reference date, such as a first date of testing of the code (104). Before the reference date, various scanning and/or searching tools (114, 116) may be used to determine a presence of the marker code (108) within the code (104). Moreover, after this reference date, during running of the code (104), the marker code (108) may cause immediate and program-wide cessation of the code (104), and provide a message as to why the cessation has occurred. In this way, the problematic code portion(s) (106) will not be passed to a large number of customers. |
