Learn how to set up, tweak, and enforce SonarQube Quality Gates in your CI pipeline. See a step‑by‑step example, trade‑offs, and how to verify gate status via UI and API.
Learn how to decide between SonarQube’s Leak Period and Overall Quality Gates, see a side‑by‑side comparison, and follow a concrete setup and validation example.
Learn how to configure SonarQube’s Leak Period (New Code) so your quality gate only counts issues introduced after a chosen baseline, reducing noise from historic debt.
Use SonarQube Quality Gates scoped to New Code to turn code quality metrics into an enforced merge decision without blocking delivery on legacy debt.
Decide whether to run SonarQube Branch Analysis on every branch or just selected ones. This guide outlines constraints, compares options, explains trade‑offs, and shows a practical SonarScanner configuration example.
In high-throughput CI environments, the SonarQube Quality Gate evaluation process can introduce significant latency. When multiple projects trigger analysis simultaneously, the default worker pool size may limit the number of concurrent evaluations, causing subsequent analysis tasks to queue. This behavior creates a trade-off between maintaining system stabi
Resource Management for Low-Traffic Workloads In SonarQube Community Edition, the server processes analysis reports asynchronously via a background task queue. For environments with low-traffic workloads, reducing hardware allocations to minimize costs is a common objective. However, the Community Edition utilizes a specific processing model for these tasks.
Our SonarQube server intermittently refuses to integrate a scanner report with a Compute Engine error indicating the analysis date is older than the date of the last known analysis for the project (exact wording unverified for our version). The scanner succeeds locally; the failure appears in the project's Background Tasks page during report processing. From
