Hey there.

SonarQube doesn’t generate coverage reports, it only reads the ones that are passed to it. Does the coverage report generated for your project (by JaCoCo, presumably) indicate that the line is covered?

Oh, my bad! Yes, it’s coming from JaCoCo, I was not aware of it. Please discard this issue then. Sorry!
