== Why is this an issue?
Having all branches in a ``++CASE++``, ``++IF++`` or ``++IIF++`` chain with the same implementation is an error. Either a copy-paste error was made and something different should be executed, or there shouldn't be a ``++CASE++``/``++IF++``/``++IIF++`` chain at all.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,sql]
----
IF @x < 25 -- Noncompliant
PRINT 'A'
ELSE IF @x < 10
PRINT 'A'
ELSE
PRINT 'A'
SELECT
CASE col1 -- Noncompliant
WHEN 1 THEN 'A'
WHEN 2 THEN 'A'
ELSE 'A'
END,
IIF(col1 < 25, 'A', 'A') -- Noncompliant
FROM table1
----
=== Exceptions
This rule does not apply to ``++IF++``/``++CASE++`` chains without ``++ELSE++`` clauses.
----
IF @x < 25 -- no issue, this could have been done on purpose to make the code more readable
PRINT 'A'
ELSE IF @x > 10
PRINT 'A'
