Hello,

We are using sonarqube version 8.9 and jacoco-maven-plugin version 0.8.7.  
We also use maven-sueerfire-plugin for unit tests and maven-failsafe-plugin for integration tests.

Maven config is the following:

\<jacoco.version\>0.8.7\</jacoco.version\>  
\<sonar.java.coveragePlugin\>jacoco\</sonar.java.coveragePlugin\>  
\<sonar.dynamicAnalysis\>reuseReports\</sonar.dynamicAnalysis\>  
\<sonar.language\>java\</sonar.language\>  
\<sonar.coverage.jacoco.xmlReportPaths\>target/site/jacoco/jacoco.xml, target/site/jacoco-it/jacoco.xml\</sonar.coverage.jacoco.xmlReportPaths\>

org.jacoco jacoco-maven-plugin ${jacoco.version} prepare-agent prepare-agent-integration report report-integration 

The reported coverage in sonarqube seems to be showing the combined coverage of both unit and integration tests. However in the left menu, I can only see Unit Tests, when I click on this link I can see the number of unit tests. Is it also possible to show the number of integration tests ? Why are they not all together so we can have a full overview of test classes ?

Thanks,  
Lucas

Hi,

Yes, coverage from all types is aggregated.

This is labeled Unit Tests because that’s typically what the reports about the tests themselves cover. There’s not a way to have a second set of numbers that’s just about your ITs.

Hello Ann,

Thank you for your answer, however when I look under unit tests, I only see the unit tests listed, not the integration tests. Maybee it’s a detail but just want to make sure the coverage is accurate.

Kind regards,  
Lucas

Hi Lucas,

Coverage doesn’t have a lot to do with the test execution report.

I found a work around but it would be better to use the failsafe plugin.

The work around is to configure the surefire plugin to include \*\*/\*Test.java and \*\*/\*IT.java files and to use the build-helper-maven-plugin and to add src/it/java as test sources.
