Implement automated code style enforcement using complementary tools rather than relying on manual reviews. Configure multiple tools to work together, as each has unique strengths and blind spots. Key practices: - Configure formatters to automatically apply fixes (not just check) to prevent build failures while ensuring consistency - Use overlapping tools like formatter-maven-plugin, spotless, and PMD together for comprehensive coverage - Add static analysis rules to catch common style and quality issues - Automate organizational concerns like import ordering and POM file element sorting Example configuration: ```xml com.diffplug.spotless spotless-maven-plugin apply process-sources ``` When introducing new tools, prefer those that can automatically fix issues rather than just reporting them. This reduces manual work and ensures consistent style across the codebase.
