4. Modify the jtestcli.properties file to include the following properties:

   jtest.analyzer.findbugs.enabled=true
   jtest.analyzer.findbugs.dir=FINDBUGS/INSTALLATION/DIRECTORY
   rules.provider_fb.analyzer=edu.umd.cs.findbugs
   rules.provider_fb.data=${jtest.home}/rules/fbrules.xml

Analyzing Code with FindBugs

Specify the FindBugs user test configurations to perform analysis with Findbugs:

• user://FindBugs - Enables every rule
• user://FindBugs Recommended - Enables FindBugs recommended rules

Optional Customizations

You can customize your FindBugs integration by configuring the following properties:

# Custom limit for number of files to be tested in a single executed FindBugs process. Default is reasonably high.
jtest.analyzer.findbugs.files.limit=1000

# Custom timeout (seconds) for the FindBugs process to start. Default is 5 seconds. /
jtest.analyzer.findbugs.launch.timeout=5

# Custom timeout (seconds) for the FindBugs process to complete. Default is 360 seconds. /
jtest.analyzer.findbugs.timeout=360

# Custom launch file for FindBugs process. Default is taken from the FindBugs analyzer jar file. 
# If one cannot be found, attempts to use file 'findbugs.ini' from current working directory.
jtest.analyzer.findbugs.launch.file=CUSTOM/LAUNCH/FILE
