Is there a way to add attributes to coverity snapshots to allow filtering

I'm new to Coverity. I would like to be able to mark snapshots with a tag like "RC1" to allow filtering in Coverity Connect. I can select cids that are in snapshots by a date or date range or a snapshot ID.

I'd like to be able to automatically add tags (known to our build system) as each snapshot is created, programattically.

Solution

  • Yes and no.

    In cov-commit-defects you can specify 

    --description "description"
--target <platform>
--version <version>

    and you can filter against those values in the Snapshot views. However, you can't filter with those attributes in the Issues:By Snapshot view.
