MSBuild Sonar™Scanner

Configuration

Use the MSBuild Sonar™ task for the “classic” .NET Framework 4.6+ builds. For other .NET related builds, use the dotnet task.

1	Install the MSBuild Sonar™Scanner as described in https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/scan/sonarscanner-for-msbuild/ Make sure to download the version for .NET Framework 4.6+. Example projects for MSBuild can be found here.
2	Configure Build Agent Capability [local/remote agent] in Bamboo UI [remote agent] in the `amboo-agent-home/bin/bamboo-capabilities.properties` file define capability `system.builder.msbuild.SonarMsBuild=path/to/your/msbuild/home` where `SonarMsBuild` is the label that can be selected in the task configuration
3	Add a Sonar™ Scanner for MSBuild - Begin Analysis task to your build plan Select the Sonar™ MSBuild capability from step 2. Provide the required Sonar™ project parameters
4	Add a MSBuild task to build your build plan: Select an executable that points to your .NET framework (location of the MSBuild.exe), and not the SonarMSBuild from step 2. Provide the solution file details in Project File
5	Add a Sonar™ Scanner for MSBuild - End Analysis task to your build plan Select the Sonar™ MSBuild capability from step 2.
6	Setup test coverage: run the coverage report generator after the build phase but right before the Sonar™Scanner dotnet end step. You can find more information on how to do this for various build types in the Wiki.
