As part of automating the process of running secure code analysis, I have a Jenkins job which uses the sourceanalyzer command line tool to generate an .fpr results file. At the moment I'm opening this results file in Audit Workbench application to view the results and check if there's any newly introduced issues etc, and generating a report from there in PDF/XML format.
Does anyone is it possible to invoke Audit Workbench through the command line and generate a report on the issues, which we could then leverage through a Jenkins script and also then mail the results? Looking online the command line usage seems to stop at the fpr generation stage.
Thanks in advance!
There is a command-line utility to generate an Report from the FPR file.
Currently there are two report generators: Legacy and BIRT. The BIRT report engine was introduced into Audit Workbench with version 4.40.
Here is an example using the BIRT Report engine to generate a DISA STIG report
BIRTReportGenerator -template "DISA STIG" -source HelloWorld_second.fpr
-output BirtReport.pdf -format PDF -showSuppressed --Version "DISA STIG 3.9"
-UseFortifyPriorityOrder
Using the legacy one is a little more involved. The command is:
ReportGenerator -format pdf -f LegacyReport.pdf -source HelloWorld_second.fpr
-template DisaStig3.10.xml -showSuppressed -showHidden
You can either use one of the predefined template reports located in the <SCA Install Dir>/Core/config/reports directory or generate one using the Report Wizard and saving the template which gets stored in the C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Fortify\config\AWB-XX.XX\reports\ directory in Windows.
On Linux/Mac look at the configuration file <SCA Install Dir>/Core/config/fortify.properties for the com.fortify.WorkingDirectory property, this is where the reports will be stored
