Quality: Sonar S1155 "Collection.isEmpty()" should be used to test for emptiness

[jlerbsc]

We noticed that you have 90 violations of the Sonar rule RSPEC-1940 "Boolean checks should not be inverted". When you call isEmpty(), it clearly communicates the code’s intention, which is to check if the collection is empty. Using size() == 0 for this purpose is less direct and makes the code slightly more complex.

With our code remediation solution you can correct these issues quickly and free of charge. You can find links and documentation here https://www.indepth.fr
