Flog-Driven Development
You point flog to a file, or directory, and it provides you with a score. The higher the score, the more attention you might want to pay to it. As for how flog calculates the number, I'll let flog summarize itself again:
-
Improve Code in Your Ruby Application with RubyCritic
Flog checks how difficult your code is to test. It sets a complexity score for each line of code and sums up the score for each method and class.
-
Gems that can identify churn, complexity, duplication and smells.

Flog-Driven Development
So, bigger is worse, but how big is bad? At what number should you take action? Thoughtbot's Ruby Science book suggests a method is long or complex with a flog score above 10. It also posits that a class is long or complex with a flog score above 50.
