Blackbox testing jacoco xml report imports to Sonarqube？

SonarQube Server / Community Build
, ,
1

I just got one standalone jacoco.xml coverage report file from a blackbox testing, it is java-based old project, there is no unit testing applied, no maven attached. It is built and tested by javac, jar, .exe cases. I tried to import it to sonarqube but failed all the time. I want to know what is the minimum configuration or information(source, lib…, sonarqube options) which can help me to do that good or am I totally wrong?

*** what are you trying to achieve**
wanna import only jacoco xml-format coverage report to Sonarqube.

*** what have you tried so far to achieve this**
Run the following cmd from sonar-scanner,

C:\sonar-scanner-4.3.0.2102-windows\bin\sonar-scanner -X -Dsonar.projectKey=engine-javaupoc-jacoco -Dsonar.coverage.jacoco.xmlReportPaths=jacoco.xml

While I always get the issue like the following, and ) is reported in Sonarqube project.

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

Nothing in your analysis log snippet jumps out at me as a problem…

In terms of minimum configuration to analyze this project, the docs on Java-specific analysis will help.

As indicated in the main parameters list you’ll need to provide

  • sonar.host.url
  • sonar.projectKey

And mandatory to analyze Java:

  • sonar.java.binaries the path to your compiled class files

Good but optional

  • sonar.sources - this defaults to . so it’s optional, but better to provide a targeted path.

And then to get your coverage file imported, there’s

  • sonar.coverage.jacoco.xmlReportPaths

but you seem to already know this one. :smiley:

Thanks for reply,

I run the sonar-scanner cmd like,

sonar-scanner -X -Dsonar.projectKey=engine-javaupoc-jacoco ^
-Dsonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000 ^
-Dsonar.coverage.jacoco.xmlReportPaths=javaupoc-jacoco.xml ^
-Dsonar.java.binaries=D:\win\build\java

while still get 0 reported from sonar server, and log showed something below,
It looked XML jacoco report is read, while nothing is analyzed, and then issue is shown in debug line. I did not see such a line in my other maven jacoco project. Is it problem?

By the way, it looks like sonar-scanner does not tell the project is java-based, right? Could you please let me know how I can do more debugging on this?

Hi,

This line:

indicates that analysis isn’t finding any Java files. It sounds like you need to review the value of sonar.sources.

One good way to do that might be to use sonar.scanner.dumpToFile=[file name] to see the values being used during analysis.

I will try dump. Thanks, @ganncamp.

@ganncamp, I got it fixed by correctly pointing to the source code location. Thanks really.

It seemed I must keep the source code in the same directory where my jacoco.xml is saved. The -Dsonar-source=(the other place where the same source is saved) is not respected?

Hi,

Your report doesn’t need to be in the source directory. Just point to it correctly. Also, the paths in the report need to match paths to the code at analysis time. I.E. you can’t run the report on one file system and then feed it into analysis on the other because the paths likely won’t match.

Hi,

I am trying to do the same thing of creating a coverage report from blackbox testing. I was wondering how you set up JaCoCo to capture the coverage data. Thanks.
