SonarQube Exclude a directory

Question

I am trying to exclude a directory from being analyzed by Sonar  I have the following properties defined in my sonar-project properties file   sonar sources src java sonar exclusions src java test        java   The directory structure I have is   src java dig src java test dig   When I run the sonar-runner I get the following info    INFO  - Excluded sources   INFO  -   src java test      java  INFO  - Excluded tests   INFO  -      package-info java   But when I check the result of the analysis all the packages inside the test directory are still there   I just need to tell Sonar to not analyze the test directory and any packages inside it

If you re an Azure DevOps user looking for both where and how to exclude files and folders  here ya go    Edit your pipeline Make sure you have the  Prepare analysis on SonarQube  task added  You ll need to look elsewhere if you need help configuring this  Suggestion  Use the UI pipeline editor vs the yaml editor if you are missing the manage link  At present  there is no way to convert to UI from yaml  Just recreate the pipeline  If using git  you can delete the yaml from the root of your repo  Under the  Advanced  section of the  Prepare analysis on SonarQube  task  you can add exclusions  See advice given by others for specific exclusion formats    Example     Additional properties that will be passed to the scanner     Put one key value per line  example    sonar exclusions      bin sonar exclusions MyProjectName MyWebContentFolder      Note  If you re not sure on the path  you can go into sonarqube  view your project  look at all or new  Code Smells  and the path you need is listed above each grouping of issues  You can grab the full path to a file or use wilds like these examples    MyProjectName MyCodeFile cs MyProjectName      If you don t have the  Run Code Analysis  task added  do that and place it somewhere after the  Build solution      sln   task   Save and Queue and then check out your sonarqube server to see if the exclusions worked

add this line to your sonar-project properties file  ex  sonar exclusions src   java be careful if you want to exclude a folder and inside the folder there is a file you must first exclude the files or add the files one by one  for example imagine there is a folder like below   src app java src controllers home java src services test java  you have to do this  sonar exclusions src app java src controllers   java src services   java  It worked for me
