This article explains how to configure your maven projects to produce reports + how to configure Jenkins with SonarQube, bringing both Unit and Integration tests coverage.


Requirements

  • Maven must run on Java 8 or +
  • You must use Sonarqube 7.x or +


Maven parent POM

You just have to define the configuration once, in the parent POM.


Maven plugins

Surefire UNIT Tests

Surefire is for UNIT tests = tests that should only use: plain java / Mockito / PowerMock / etc.


By default, the Surefire Plugin will automatically include all test classes with the following wildcard patterns:

  • **/Test*.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that start with "Test".
  • **/*Test.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "Test".
  • **/*Tests.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "Tests".
  • **/*TestCase.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "TestCase".

If the test classes do not follow any of these naming conventions, then configure Surefire Plugin and specify the tests you want to include.

See Maven Surefire plugin documentation


Results are saved in each Maven module:

  • Results are saved in XML and TXT formats in $module/target/surefire-reports/*
  • Results are saved in BINARY (jacoco format) in $module/target/jacoco.exec
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <!-- To run UNIT tests and generate execution reports. These reports are required for SonarQube -->
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.22.1</version>
                <configuration>
                    <excludes>
                        <exclude>**/*TestAPI</exclude>
                        <exclude>**/*IntegrationTest</exclude>
                    </excludes>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

            ...
        </plugins>
    </build>



Failsafe INTEGRATION tests

Failsafe will process the Integration Tests = tests that should use Spring test / black box tests / etc.


By default, the Failsafe Plugin will automatically include all test classes with the following wildcard patterns:

  • **/IT*.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that start with "IT".
  • **/*IT.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "IT".
  • **/*ITCase.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "ITCase".

If the test classes do not follow any of these naming conventions, then configure Failsafe Plugin and specify the tests you want to include.


Results are saved in each Maven module:

  • Results are saved in XML and TXT formats in $module/target/failsafe-reports/*
  • Results are saved in BINARY (jacoco format) in $module/target/jacoco-it.exec


Notes:

  • No tests will be run if mvn clean install -DskipIntegrationTests
  • The exclusion | inclusion list is something that depends on your own situation


    <build>
        <plugins>

            <!-- To run INTEGRATION tests and generate execution reports. These reports are required for SonarQube -->
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.22.1</version>
                <configuration>
                    <includes>
                        <include>**/*TestAPI</include>
                        <include>**/*IntegrationTest</include>
                    </includes>
                </configuration>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>default-integration-test</id>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>integration-test</goal>
                        </goals>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>

            ...
        </plugins>
    </build>



SONAR maven plugin

SonarQube released a maven plugin to work with SONAR. This plugin already includes most of the configuration and default behavior is correct.

  • Sonar will read Jacoco "exec" binaries files
  • Sonar will process the Surefire & Failsafe reports


    <build>
        <plugins>
            ..

            <!-- SonarQube engine -->
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.sonarsource.scanner.maven</groupId>
                <artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>3.6.0.1398</version>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>



Source code POM example

This is how the parent POM should look like to use SonarQube with correct coverage:

    <properties>
        <!-- Project configuration -->
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
        <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
        <java.version>1.8</java.version>

        <!-- Sonar -->
        <!-- Tell sonar where to look for the binaries coverage files. Property inherited by submodules -->
        <sonar.jacoco.reportPaths>${project.basedir}/../target/jacoco.exec</sonar.jacoco.reportPaths>
    </properties>


    <build>
        <plugins>
            <!-- Build settings -->
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>3.3</version>
                <configuration>
                    <source>${java.version}</source>
                    <target>${java.version}</target>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

            <!-- Always generate the source, it is better for debugging -->
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

Jenkins configuration

Now that you can generate these reports, especially the integration results, you need to configure Jenkins to use them!

Jenkins SonarQube configuration


To set up the Sonar Jenkins plugin to process already generated JaCoCo data files, the following properties must be specified in the "Additional properties" text box, under the Sonar installation being configured:

  • -Dsonar.dynamicAnalysis=reuseReports ==> Tells SonarQube to reuse existing reports for unit tests execution and coverage reports
  • -Dsonar.jacoco.itReportPath=${ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_JENKINS}/workspace/${JENKINS_JOB}/target/reports/jacoco-it.exec => integration tests report to process



Java

Since jUnit 4.11 you can set the order of your tests.
