How to create a SonarQube report?

Si quieres exportar informes de los resultados de los análisis de los proyectos de SonarQube, estas en el artículo adecuado. A continuación, te vamos a explicar paso por paso cómo puedes generar estos informes.

Step 1: Download the Report Plugin for SonarQube

To get started you will have to download the Report Plugin for SonarQube through this link. In case you don’t know it, it’s our product that allows you to automatically generate reports of SonarQube projects.

We remind you that you have a free 14-day trial to see how it works. We also have this same product for SonarQube, which you can download through this link

On the other hand, we leave here the installation instructions. You will see that it is very simple to complete this step.

Step 2: Generate reports

Once you have finished the installation process you will be able to see your first reports.

Access any project you want. In this example we will see below, we access the project called WebGoat and click on More > Reporting (this will appear when we have installed the Report Plugin for SonarQube).
