SonarQube not picking up Cobertura code coverage

Question

I am analysing a Java project that has been unit tested and Cobertura coverage.xml reported. I am using SonarQube 4.1.1 and latest Sonar Runner. I have successfully imported Cobertura coverage results to Sonar 3.2 and Ant analyzer, but with this new version I am running into problems. In the new Sonar analysis execution (through Jenkins) I see no reference in logs that it would have started any Cobertura engine or anything. My settings in Runner Jenkins project:

sonar.dynamicAnalysis=reuseReports
sonar.java.coveragePlugin=cobertura
sonar.cobertura.reportPath=[mypath]/coverage.xml
sonar.junit.reportsPath=[mypath]/

No mentioning of Cobertura in the analysis output (except my own property values) and SonarQube page shows "-" in coverage report. Unit test results are shown fine.

I have also added all source, bin, and test directories. Any ideas? Thanks.

Update I wonder if the reason why Cobertura coverage is not reported on SonarQube page, is because in Jenkins my SonarQube project clones (Clone plugin) the workspace from a previous Project build? If the coverage.xml file contains static paths, then maybe it goes wrong somehow.

Answer 1

Ok the solution was quite obvious. SonarCube 4.1.1 does not come with Cobertura preinstalled, so I installed it and now it works :) Maybe it was preinstalled in 3.2 version, I can't remember.
