Hi,
I’ve already answered your question about rules in the separate thread where you asked it.
Regarding file differentiation, are you saying your test and source files are mingled together without a clear distinction in the file system?
sonar.sources defaults to ., which means by default all your test files are being treated as source files. To sort this out, you’ll likely need a combination of source exclusions and test inclusions. Without knowing how your files are named, or organized, this can only be a guess, but something like:
// yes, this is the default, but it avoids future confusion to make it explicit
sonar.sources=.
// there is no default. this sets it to everything
sonar.tests=.
// sonar.sources and sonar.tests now fully overlap,
// which will cause analysis errors if left as-is
sonar.exclusions=**/*test*
sonar.test.inclusions=**/*test*
HTH,
Ann
