    There are utilities out there to analyze the code for optimization but I havent seen any free ones yet.
    You can run the app and do things to try to break it. Be a "user" and click on things in different orders then when you would logically do. Enter in text data where numeric data is expected and so on. Leave criteria blank, close the app in the middle of an operation, run multiple instances of the app, etc.

    You may try reading out the code and determine any best practices/rule of thumbs that is being violated... Or find a loophole in the logic or the code implementation...
