FP in S2784: Add at least one assertion to this test case

Rules and Languages Report False-positive / False-negative...

Hi,

If the test is using a helper method to assert, not located in the same file, the analyzer will not understand it and report a FP. In SonarQube/SonarCloud, it is possible to tune the rule in the quality profile to consider method performSuccessfulRequest as an assertion.

SonarLint doesn’t support rules parameter when not using connected mode. So today options are:

  • disable the rule
  • use connected mode to benefit from rule parameter

I created a ticket, but this is low priority:
