ROSLYN.MAINTAINABILITY.CA1506 : Avoid excessive class coupling (C#)

See Roslyn-Detected C# Warning Classes for more information.

Summary

This rule measures class coupling by counting the number of unique type references that a symbol contains. Symbols that have a high degree of class coupling can be difficult to maintain. It is a good practice to have types and methods that exhibit low coupling and high cohesion. To fix this violation, try to redesign the code to reduce the number of types to which it is coupled.

This check corresponds to Roslyn rule CA1506. For full rule details, see the Microsoft website: CA1506.
