Publish Code Coverage to SonarQube

You will see how to publish code coverage to SonarQube in 2 simple steps:

1. Enable the xml parameter in the RKTracer configuration file to generate the SonarQube xml file.
2. Set the reports path in the sonar properties file to the SonarQube xml file in the project.

Step 1: Enable the xml parameter

Enable the xml parameter in the RKTracer configuration file to generate the SonarQube xml file. When you generate RKTracer code coverage reports, you need to use the following parameter along with the report generate command.

rkresults -xml

With the above command, the RKTracer tool will generate two XML reports:

• rktracer.xml for Jenkins
• rktracer-sonarqube.xml for SonarQube

Step 2: Set the reports path in the sonar properties file

Set the reports path in the sonar properties file to the SonarQube xml file in the project. To publish code coverage to SonarQube, you need to edit the project properties file and add the following details.

sonar.exclusions=rktracer/**
sonar.language=java
sonar.java.binaries=target/classes
sonar.coverageReportPaths=/home/user/project-path/rktracer/report/rktracer-sonarqube.xml

Then run the sonar scanner to publish the code coverage data to SonarQube.
