             Summary: Add clang-tidy check catching default branch when switching over enum values
                 Key: MESOS-5235
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5235
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Benjamin Bannier


{{Enum}} values have a limited domain which allows compilers to emit diagnostics if not all possible values are handled in {{switch}} statements. Adding {[default}} branches interferes with these compiler checks as a {{default}} branch would always match.

We try to avoid {{default}} branches in {{switch}} statements over enum values, and should add a static analysis check to catch any such instances.

This should be an easier starter check to implement since it should be possible to implement all the matching with {{clang-tidy}} matchers.
