Force Update Check for Plugins and Themes forces WordPress to run a theme and plugin update check whenever you visit the WordPress updates page (<code>/wp-admin/update-core.php</code>).
Force Update Check Features:
<ul>
<li>Automatic checks (no need to click the “check again” button)</li>
<li>No configurations or settings page</li>
<li>Eliminates action for developer or QA</li>
<li>Get new features and security patches faster</li>
</ul>
How it works
By default, WordPress checks for updates approximately every 12 hours. This plugin clears the theme/plugin updates cache and triggers a new update check each time the updates page is visited.
When activated on your site it runs automatically and has no configurations page or settings to worry about. Each time you visit the updates page WordPress will run a new check.
Force Update Check for Plugins and Themes is specifically a plugin and theme check and will not force a WordPress core update check.
Third-party plugins and themes that do not update from the WordPress.org repository may not be cleared by the Force Update Check for Plugins and Themes plugin. If the plugin or theme does not update via the WordPress.org repository, and forcing an update check with this plugin does not work, check with your plugin or theme developer for a force check option.

</blockquote>
Plugin Check is a developer tool. It scans the plugin or application you specify (or upload) and determines whether you have undefined functions or methods in it.
PHP is not a compiled language. It looks for functions during runtime. So if you have a segment of code not covered by your normal testing, and you have an undefined function in there, you will never know of the undefined function until it hits production when the particular conditions activating that particular code segment are met. This tool will prove especially useful during large scale refactoring, or for quality checking for submission to sites like CodeCanyon.
<blockquote>
Live Demo
Plugin Check has a beautifully designed admin interface, which is feature-rich, user-friendly and functional. Please visit this fully operational <a href="http://demo.thulasidas.com/plugin-check" title="Play with Plugin Check Pro" rel="nofollow ugc">live demo site</a> to see it in action.

Plugin Check

Pro version is great!
It's worth every penny + Manoj quick with his help too.
Thank you so much!



Pro version is great!

Pretty good design. The results are aren't very clear though. No need to show the "The auto-generated code is:" section. With a little more work this could be great.



Pretty good.

Not working.

Plugin Check is a validation tool for PHP developers (and a quality checker for end users) to locate undefined functions and methods.
