Question

I run the mvn sonar:sonar from parent directory.

Is there a way to specify the exclusions in pom file or do we need to configure it in sonar qube.

Answer 1

From the documentation:

You can either:

• define property <sonar.skip>true</sonar.skip> in the pom.xml of the module you want to exclude
• use build profiles to exclude some module (like for integration tests)
• use Advanced Reactor Options (such as "-pl"). For example } mvn sonar:sonar -pl !module2
