Hey there. Have you tried [narrowing the focus](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/project-administration/narrowing-the-focus/)? ---

Hey there. If you’e using the Scanner for Maven, you should be able to simplify this to: `mvn clean -U test -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true sonar:sonar -Dproject.org=${params.ALM_ORG_ID} -Dsonar.projectKey=${params.ALM_ORG_ID}.api-facade-metadataapi -Dsonar.projectName='CXU Metadata API'` The Scanner for Maven automatically detects sources/tests, and passing information manually just gets in the way. I suggest simplifying this, and then going back to see what exclusions you really need to add. ---

Yes, that’s what I mean by simplifying it. Let the autodetection takes its course, and then add exclusions if still necessary. ---

Hey there. Stepping back for a moment, I realized that you’re experiencing expected behavior. - Source and Test files are analyzed - Only source files have “Lines of Code” (counting towards a license, if you have a commercial edition) - Some issues are still being raised on test files. Can you clarify why you want to exclude the test files? ---

In test files it is reporting the issues which we dont want to fix .thats why we need to exclude them for m analysis ---

I would suggest marking these issues as **Won’t Fix** in the SonarQube UI, rather than excluding test files entirely and missing out on issues raised in the future you may actually want to fix!
