A method may include generating, by performing a full analysis of code and for each component of the code, summaries including: a forward summary including a forward flow, and a backward summary including a backward flow, obtaining a modification to a modified component, determining that one of the summaries for the modified component is invalid, and in response to determining that a summary for the modified component is invalid: obtaining the forward flow from the forward summary of the modified component, obtaining the backward flow from the backward summary of the modified component, generating a local flow by performing an incremental analysis of the modified component using the forward flow of the modified component and the backward flow of the modified component, and detecting a defect in the code using the forward flow of the modified component, the local flow, and the backward flow of the modified component.
