How to Report a False-positive / False-negative

Hey SonarSource Community! False-positives happen, as do false-negatives, and we’re eager to fix them. We are thrilled when our users report problems, so we can make our products better. What is a false-positive (FP)? A false-positive is when an issue is raised unexpectedly on code that should not trigger an issue, or where the suggested action doesn’t make any sense for the code. What is a false-negative (FN)? A false-negative is when an issue should be raised on a piece of code, but isn’t. …

Then tell us:

• What language is this for?

Razor / cshtml

• Which rule?

Web>S6853

• Why do you believe it’s a false-positive/false-negative?

Rule states there must be a for= attribute (or be nested) - Razor / asp.net replaces this / applies this via asp-for= attributes

• Are you using
  • SonarQube for IDE - which IDE/version?

SonarQube IDE 9.0.0.15771 for Visual Studio 18.0.0

• How can we reproduce the problem? Give us a self-contained snippet of code (formatted text, no screenshots)

Example

                <div>
                    <div>
                        <label asp-for='ModelProperty'></label>
                    </div>
                    <div>
                        <input asp-for='ModelProperty' />
                    </div>
                </div>
